PhD / Research Studies

We have a vibrant and dynamic community of approximately 70 research students in the School of Informatics and welcome applications from candidates whose interests align with those of our academic staff.

Research students are central to research activity in the School. Our goal is to support talented individuals who wish to develop their research skills, to undertake rigorous and inspirational research and ultimately to obtain an MPhil or PhD qualification. Research students are supported in their studies through a structured programme of supervision and training.

If you are interested in joining our community of research students, please have a look at our PhD research projects. This provides details of current opportunities in all five of the School's academic units (Computing, Health Informatics, Human-Computer Interaction Design, Information Science and Software Reliability). Details of the application process are available here.

Details of the Universities current studentship scheme which will offer studentships across the School of Informatics are available here with application deadline of 9th March 2012 for October 2012 entry.
