Study in DPMMS
General Information
Cambridge is a wonderful place to study mathematics at both undergraduate and research level. But neither admission to study nor course design is the direct responsibility of DPMMS, so this web site maintains no information on these topics.
Good places to start looking for such information:
- Undergraduate admissions
- The undergraduate course
- Master of Mathematics / Master of Advanced Study (Part III)
- Postgraduate Study in Mathematics
- The University Board of Graduate Study
- The Graduate Union's Alternative Prospectus
or for something much shorter:
- University of Cambridge Science Summer School
Information for Current Students
- 2011-12 Mathematics lecture lists on the Mathematics Faculty web site.
- Schedules - on the Mathematics Faculty web site.
- Past Exam Papers - on the Mathematics Faculty web site.
- The Archimedeans' students lecture notes.
- The Cambridge University Graduate Mathematics Society.
Such material as is available for specific DPMMS courses (example sheets, lecture notes and so on) has been gathered here. Some courses have more material, others less.
Example sheets (and other info) for courses offered by DAMTP appear on the DAMTP example sheet page.

Part III / MMath/MASt
Course pages on the Mathematics Faculty web site
We only list Part III courses for which we have information.
Local Fields
Representation theory and invariant theory
Topos Theory
Only a few 2011-2012 DPMMS Part III courses have a page yet. The courses change significantly from year to year, so do not expect information from previous years to be relevant.
Student provided sources of information for Part III courses:
- Part III eRoom provided by Caret.
- Student-run Part III Wiki.
- Archimedean's Part III notes
Courses Intended For Graduates (Non-Examinable)
Lecture List on the Mathematics Faculty web site.
Note that the Homological Mirror Symmetry course now meets at 1:00-3:00 on Monday and Friday.
Like Part III these change every year and only have a page if we have something to say.
