2026 African Institute for Mathematical Sciences Scholarship

Published: 25 Aug 2025

Applications are now Open in the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences for a Master’s in Mathematical Sciences Degree. 

The AIMS Structured Master’s Program runs over three semesters. The requisite skills phase of the AIMS course builds a standard core set of problem-solving skills: estimation, computation, approximation, modelling, data analysis and statistics. The elective review phase allows students to apply these skills in some of the most exciting areas of science.

During the final phase of the AIMS course students do a research project and write a scientific report under the supervision of an expert researcher on a topic of their choice. Research initiated in these projects often develops into further postgraduate research work after AIMS.
