Does anyone know of some good one-year Math Master's programs?
I know that Cambridge has Part III, but from what I have heard it is extraordinarily competitive and the evaluation is focused on the student being able to parrot the material that he or she learned. I would love to do a program in which the focus is on actually understanding the material, and the students work together to learn the material.
As a bit of background, I am completing a one-year Master's program in theoretical physics right now. I feel that knowing more mathematics will be very useful in physics, so I'd like to spend some time learning more math before starting my PhD in physics. However, I don't want to take too much time out of doing the physics - hence, I am looking for something which lasts only one year.
Thank you very much for your help!
