Research is led by scientific curiosity and motivated by social, economic and industrial needs. We have strong links with local and national industry – not least because most practical problems demand an interdisciplinary approach.<br/><br/>As a research student, youre associated with one or more research groups in the Department of Informatics:<br/><br/><br/>- Data Science<br/><br/><br/>- Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems (EASy)<br/><br/><br/>- Foundations of Software Systems<br/><br/><br/>- Creative Technology.<br/><br/><br/>We welcome research proposals in all of the areas our faculty specialise in. Our interdisciplinary research involves key roles in the Centre for Computation Neuroscience and Robotics (CCNR), the Sackler Centre for Consciousness Science and the Sussex Humanities Lab.<br/><br/>We understand that deciding where and what to study is a very important decision. We’ll make all reasonable efforts to provide you with the courses, services and facilities described in this prospectus. However, if we need to make material changes, for example due to government or regulatory requirements, or unanticipated staff changes, we’ll let you know as soon as possible.
