Identify Your Research Interests: Clearly define your specific research interests within Applied Mathematics. This could include optimization, integration techniques, or any other area you're passionate about. Search for Potential Advisors: Look for professors whose research aligns with your interests. You can do this by checking University Websites: Explore the faculty pages of universities with strong mathematics or applied mathematics programs. Reviewing Recent Publications: Find papers in your areas of interest and check the authors' affiliations. Attending Conferences: Look for upcoming conferences in your field and see which professors present relevant research. Reach Out: Contact potential advisors directly. Introduce Yourself and briefly explain your background, research interests, and why you're interested in their work. Show Genuine Interest: Mention specific aspects of their research that align with your interests. Attach Your CV: Include a well-prepared CV highlighting your relevant experience and qualifications. Consider Research Centers and Labs: Some research centres or labs have multiple faculty members and may have openings for new PhD students. Look for centres that focus on your areas of interest.

Edouard Singirankabo :
I fully agree with Norrlaili Shapiee. That is excellent advice. The first bullet point is perhaps the most important--
What area of applied mathematics are you interested in? Applied mathematics is a very broad area and encompasses many specialties. It is important that you determine what specialty you wish to pursue.
I also recommend that you honestly answer this question to yourself: "Why do you want a PhD?" Related to that, "What are your long-term goals? What career do you want to pursue?"
