Structured Masters Research Topics

Overview

The AIMS Structured Masters Program is a 3-Semester program that has the third semester strictly dedicated to research works to be done by our students with supervision from lecturers/researchers worldwide. Applications are open to lecturers and other expert researchers to suggest topics from different fields in the mathematical sciences. These topics may come from Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, Machine Learning, Physics, Climate Science, etc.

AIMS Ghana invites researchers to propose and supervise a project for any of of our current AIMS MSc in Mathematical Sciences students during the Research Phase of the course from May 29 – July 21, 2023.

The project should allow them to learn about research processes and structures as they work on a more open-ended problem. For most of our Master’s students, this will be their first experience with regards to undertaking a research project within a short time frame of 8 weeks. For this reason, students will mainly be expected to show evidence of independent work on a mathematical problem and not precisely work that will be meant for publication. Topics are welcome from all areas of the mathematical sciences.

We will be excited to have local and international supervisors, as supervision will take a hybrid format (online/in-person). Our tutors will also be available here at the Centre to give additional in-person support. If Interested in supervising a number of students or will be available to visit in person, kindly get in touch via our information desk to discuss whether you can be flown in for in-person supervision.

To propose a project please give a title and short description in the application form before the deadline of 23rd February 2023.

Applicants will be contacted by the end of March to know whether their project(s) has been selected for current students to pursue.

Thank you for your interest in helping to train our students.
