Progression to Part III, in which more than 80 options are offered, normally requires a first in Part II or a very good performance in Parts IB and II, and successful completion leads to a BA with MMath. See the Faculty website for more details. For further information about studying Mathematics at the University of Cambridge see the Faculty of.
Cambridge University 30 April, 2010 I declare that this essay is work done as part of the Part III Examination. I have read and understood the Statement on Plagiarism for Part III and Graduate Courses issued by the Faculty of Mathematics, and have abided by it. This essay is the result of my own work, and except where explicitly.
Here I will put up various links and information relating to Part III. of the Mathematical Tripos at the University of Cambridge., which I completed in 2013-14, earning an Honours Master of Advanced Study in Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics. I studied at St. John's College, and was registed as a graduate student at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics.
You can apply to Pure, Applied or Statistics when applying for part III maths, but the course is the same regardless. You're supposed to apply to the department with the most relevance to your interests (i.e. you're expected to take more modules from that area), but it's not a fixed rule.
As of 2018 the Mathematical Tripos course comprises three undergraduate years (Parts IA, IB and II) which qualify a student for a BA degree, and an optional one year masters course which qualifies a student for a Master of Mathematics (MMath) degree (with BA) if they are a Cambridge fourth year student or a Master of Advanced Study (MASt) degree if they come from outside just to do Part III.
The structure of Part III is such that students prepare between six and nine lecture courses for examination. These lecture courses may be selected from the wide range offered by both Mathematics Departments. As an alternative to one lecture course, an essay may be submitted. There is also the possibility of taking a reading course for examination.
A work sample (this can be an essay or dissertation written during the Part II). A letter of support from the student's College confirming that they support the student's intention to take HPS Part III, and arrangements are in place for a fourth year of study.
