This paper surveys the teaching of university-level mathematics in various London institutions during the reign of Queen Victoria. It highlights some of the famous mathematicians who were involved for many years as teachers of this mathematics, including Augustus De Morgan, James Joseph Sylvester, and Karl Pearson. The paper also investigates the wide variety of teaching establishments, including mainly academic institutions (University College, King's College), the military colleges (Royal Military Academy, Woolwich and Royal Naval College, Greenwich), the women's colleges (Bedford and Queen's), and the technical colleges and polytechnics (e.g., Central Technical Institute) which began to appear during the latter part of this period. A comparison of teaching styles and courses offered is a fruitful way of exploring the rich development of university-level mathematics in London between 1837 and 1901.
