Computer Science PhD PhD PhD

Join our research team to work on projects that have real-world impact. From optimisation for airports to machine learning for energy suppliers, we explore computer science from theory to application.<br/><br/>Our research topics include:<br/><br/><br/>- agent-based systems<br/><br/><br/>- artificial intelligence<br/><br/><br/>- computational optimisation<br/><br/><br/>- computer vision<br/><br/><br/>- data science<br/><br/><br/>- functional programming<br/><br/><br/>- human-computer interaction<br/><br/><br/>- machine learning<br/><br/><br/>Youll meet with your supervisor at least 10 times per year. Most of our students have 15-20 meetings per year.<br/><br/>Our research groups hold regular seminars which PhD students can attend.<br/><br/>In the 2019 Postgraduate Research Experience Survey, the School of Computer Science was ranked highly in:<br/><br/><br/>- resources<br/><br/><br/>- progress and assessment<br/><br/><br/>- responsibilities<br/><br/><br/>- research skills<br/><br/><br/>Our Graduate School can help you develop your research skills through:<br/><br/><br/>- paid work placements<br/><br/><br/>- training courses<br/><br/><br/>- public engagement opportunities<br/><br/><br/>You can also apply for travel funding to help you collaborate and present your research overseas.<br/><br/>Many PhD graduates choose to continue an academic career. You may start with a postdoctoral position or a teaching fellowship. However, there is a need for PhD graduates in industry too. Graduates typically work in:<br/><br/><br/>- finance<br/><br/><br/>- logistics<br/><br/><br/>- energy<br/><br/><br/>- manufacturing<br/><br/><br/>You will be able to use your expertise to build specialised computing techniques.
