The Further Mathematics Support Programme(FMSP) is supported by the Department for Education and managed by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), an independent educational charity. The FMSP has worked with Peter Rowlett and Katie Steckles to produce a series of podcast called Taking Maths Further. Every episode takes a topic from the A level Maths or Further Maths syllabus and looks at its applications. Each episode includes an interview with someone working using related mathematics. Each podcast has an associated puzzle and further reading designed to stimulate students’ interest in mathematics outside of the curriculum. Topics have included calculus, medical imaging, statistical sampling and Boolean algebra.

Podcasts from the University of Oxford podcasts series in which Oxford mathematicians explore the power and beauty of their subject. Recent topics have included Sir Roger Penrose describing how crystalline symmetries are necessarily 2-fold, 3-fold, 4-fold, or 6-fold; Professor Marcus du Sautoy, Charles Simonyi Chair in the Public Understanding of Science, talks about the connections between art and mathematics and Professor Gui-Qiang G. Chen presents in his inaugural lecture several examples to illustrate the origins, developments, and roles of partial differential equations in our changing world. The site provides full information on each speaker and a summary of content; keywords are linked so topics can be searched across the various podcasts.
