Notice biographique
The South-Western Polytechnic (later Chelsea Polytechnic/College) Department of Physics and Mathematics was divided into two separate departments in 1907. Until 1918-1919, much of the work conducted by the department was ancillary to the Departments of Electrical and Mechanical Engineering. These departments were then transferred to Battersea Polytechnic. The Department of Mathematics subsequently developed courses for the General and Special degrees of the University of London. During the Second World War, scientific research development stimulated the need for mathematical education, and shortly after the war, advanced courses were introduced at the request of physicists of the EMI Research Laboratories and GEC Research laboratories that developed into lecture courses for the MSc degree of the University of London. Mathematics teaching was transferred to King's College when King's and Chelsea merged in 1985.

Chelsea Polytechnic/College Mathematics record books, 1955-1972 (Ref: CDM/ER), postgraduate registers, 1965-1972 (Ref: CDM/RPG), postgraduate student files, 1968-1985 (Ref: CDM/FPPG). Information contained in the record books typically includes examination results, terminal essay marks and notes of satisfactory completion of the course. Until 1965 postgraduate details are included in the main series of record books, thereafter a sub series of postgraduate students is kept. Information recorded in this sub series includes name, address, qualification and course of study, and some dates of completion. Postgraduate registers typically give name, address, enrolment date, duration and degree. Postgraduate student files are subdivided into MSc, 1970-1983, (Ref: CDM/FPPG/MS), PhD, 1971-1985 (Ref: CDM/FPPG/P), MPhil and withdrawals, 1968-1974 (Ref: CDM/FPPG/PX), and include application forms and letters of acceptance.
Record books are arranged chronologically. Postgraduate files are organised by degree, then completion date, then alphabetically. Postgraduate registers are organised chronologically, then alphabetically within each register.
Subject to an eighty year closure period from date of leaving, but may be consulted by Departmental staff and other College staff with permission from the Head of Department.
Copies, subject to the condition of the original, can be supplied to Departmental staff. Requests to publish original material should be submitted to the Director of Archive Services, King's College London.
