The Department of Mathematics at UCL is an internationally renowned department within one of the world's most prestigious universities. Since its beginning, mathematics at UCL has been enhanced by its many outstanding members of staff. Indeed, two of its students (and later staff) Professor Klaus Roth (1958) and Professor Alan Baker (1970) have gone on to win the Fields Medal. Another former member of staff Professor Tim Gowers won the Fields Medal in 1998 for work he did whilst at UCL.
There are approximately 81 academic members of whom 34 are full professors, and a number of Honorary members of staff, including Fellows of the Royal Society. The department also has approximately 31 Postdoctoral Research Fellows, around 102 PhD students and 38 MSc students.
