Mathematical sciences
Research in the mathematical sciences is a key element for the advancement of all areas of science and technology, as well as being a vital area of science in itself. Our aim is to sustain core research capability, while promoting transformative and cross-disciplinary research that has the potential for significant impact.

The Mathematical Sciences portfolio will be actively shaped by considering the need to maintain an excellent and effective capability in mathematics and the needs of other disciplines and non-academic research users. In order to do this effectively we will need to reduce support in lower priority areas.
Information at theme level is available in the introduction and strategy.

Introduction
EPSRC funds research and training in Mathematical sciences to support the health of the discipline and to provide skills and knowledge for future needs.
Workshop Guidelines, Theoretical physics, mathematical physics and related areas, Hodge fellowships, Decision Making under Uncertainty Networks
Our approach
In developing our initial strategy for shaping capability, we drew on data put together for the International Review of Mathematics in 2010 and the advice of the international review panel and Mathematical sciences Strategic Advisory Team.
