For (final year) undergraduate students aiming to apply for graduate study abroad, take note of the following:
- Ensure you have a good CGPA. Increase it to your possible best.
Your last 2 years in school are really important - most schools focus on this in your transcript.
1/4
I am accepting applications from prospective students either via the 1+3.5 route (masters + PhD) or 3.5 route (PhD only) in comparative and/or environmental politics, to be funded through the North West Social Science Doctoral Training Partnership (NWSSDTP) competition.
Send me a strong proposal showing:
- your command of the literature
- gaps in the literature
- potential contributions to the literature
- proposed method (causal experiment, and mixed methods preferred as these are often in short supply and encouraged by NWSSDTP)
Send me your proposal and CV.
Delighted to host Mr. Ali Albather, ASA, CFA, CIPM from Wisayah Investment Company (a @saudi_aramco subsidiary) for a guest lecture on "From Actuarial Science to Investment Careers" at the Department of Mathematics, @KFUPM.
He shared his journey across actuarial, consulting, & institutional investment roles, covering investment risk, asset-liability management, SOA exam pathway, & how actuarial credentials complement the CFA.
Students asked excellent questions on preparing for the industrial world.
MathConnect 2026 is coming up in @kfupm, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. Second edition of this conference series. Bringing together mathematicians, researchers, and practitioners across science, engineering, finance, and tech.
Submit your abstract and attend.
