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. Our research topics include: - agent-based systems - artificial intelligence - computational optimisation - computer vision - data science - functional programming - human-computer interaction - machine learning You'll meet with your supervisor at least 10 times per year. Most of our students have 15-20 meetings per year. Our research groups hold regular seminars which PhD students can attend. In the 2019 Postgraduate Research Experience Survey, the School of Computer Science was ranked highly in: - resources - progress and assessment - responsibilities - research skills Our Graduate School can help you develop your research skills through: - paid work placements - training courses - public engagement opportunities You can also apply for travel funding to help you collaborate and present your research overseas. 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: - finance - logistics - energy - manufacturing You will be able to use your expertise to build specialised computing techniques.
