Student and graduate stories
Hear what our students and graduates have to say about studying with us.
There is so much to do at York and many things that made my time so enjoyable: MathSoc, interview days, the study space, Roger Kirk lunches… I could go on! During my time at York the department consistently gave me opportunities to not just study but do outreach work as well, such as working on Pi Day for local schoolchildren.
Chris, MMath Mathematics
Having the opportunity to study a wide range of subjects was really fantastic. My options ranged from data structures to 3D heat distribution to quantum mechanics. It's that breadth that has given me a wonderful grounding as I've moved around.
I've always worked in building and running computer systems. I worked in London and Denmark before moving back to York to work for a startup. I'm currently working for Sir Tim Berners Lee at Inrupt.
David, BSc Mathematics
