Applications are now open for two flagship postgraduate programmes at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (AIMS), designed to equip Africa’s brightest minds with advanced mathematical training and practical skills to tackle the continent’s most pressing challenges through STEM. 1. AIMS Master’s in Mathematical Sciences (2026–2027)The AIMS Master’s in Mathematical Sciences offers an intensive, one-year postgraduate programme renowned for its excellence, diversity, and collaborative learning approach. Students receive world-class training from leading African and international lecturers, developing strong analytical, computational, and problem-solving skills applicable across multiple disciplines. This programme is suited for students passionate about innovation, scientific discovery, and using mathematics as a tool for social and economic transformation in Africa. 2. AIMS Cooperative Education (CO-OP) Master’s Programme (2026–2028)The AIMS CO-OP Master’s Programme is a unique work-integrated learning pathway that combines rigorous academic training in the mathematical sciences with structured, hands-on industry experience. This innovative model allows students to alternate between classroom learning and professional placements, ensuring graduates are not only theoretically strong but also industry-ready. The programme is ideal for aspiring innovators who thrive in highly interactive learning environments and are eager to apply mathematics to real-world problems across sectors such as technology, finance, data science, engineering, policy, and research. By bridging academia and industry, the CO-OP programme prepares graduates for dynamically advanced career paths that contribute directly to Africa’s development. Who Should Apply?Applicants must hold a Bachelor’s degree in mathematics, science, or engineering with a strong mathematics component and demonstrate readiness for a demanding, highly interactive academic experience. Both programmes are offered across the AIMS Network, including AIMS South Africa, AIMS Senegal, AIMS Ghana, AIMS Cameroon, and AIMS Rwanda. Application Deadlines: March 15, 2026Click HERE to apply!
