Mathematical Biology

The University of Cambridge offers three courses in Mathematical Biology:

1. NST Part IA Mathematical Biology

   1. • This is part of the Natural Science Tripos (NST)

      • It is intended for first-year Biology students (Part IA)

      • It is offered by the Faculty of Biology

      • It runs for 20 weeks (Michaelmas, Lent and Easter Terms)

      • It is taught by multiple lecturers

2. NST Part IB Mathematical and Computational Biology

   1. • This is part of the Natural Science Tripos (NST)

      • It is intended for second-year Biology students (Part IB)

      • It is offered by the Faculty of Biology

      • It runs for 20 weeks (Michaelmas, Lent and Easter Terms)

      • It is taught by multiple lecturers

3. MT Part II Mathematical Biology

   1. • This is part of the Mathematical Tripos (MT)

      • It is intended for third-year Mathematics students (Part II)

      • It is offered by the Faculty of Mathematics

      • It runs for 8 weeks (Lent Term)

      • It is taught by Dr Ronojoy Adhikari (see link above)
