Doctor of Philosophy - PhD
Summary
Here in the Department of Computer Science we have a dynamic research culture that addresses challenges facing society through world-leading technological advances.
We have an international reputation and our staff are committed to delivering inspiring teaching and cutting-edge research at the forefront of technological innovation.
Founded in 1974, we are one of the most well-established university computing departments in the UK with a long track record of developing skilled and highly employable graduates, as well as a reputation for cutting edge research and industry engagement.
Based in the recently multi-million pound refurbished Haslegrave Building, the department is one of the largest within the School of Science. It brings together a lively community of over 40 members of staff, around 500 undergraduates, 50 taught master's students and 50 doctoral researchers.
Committed to providing the best learning environment, you will benefit not only from excellent facilities and world-class cutting edge research carried out by staff but from our enviable international industry links. Our Industry Liaison Committee represents leading UK and international companies, providing regular input to curriculum development, career advice to students and additional teaching resources.
Industry partners shape the way research and projects are conducted. Organisations such as BAE Systems, Jennic, Arqiva, Sure, Advantica, Toyota, Sensinode and Rolls-Royce have collaborated with us to develop new ideas and solve the challenges facing industry today.
These links with industry ensure we sit at the forefront of technological development and provide early opportunities for our students to secure employment.
Our postgraduate students join a talented research community that continues to make a valuable contribution to the rapidly developing computer science sector, particularly in areas such AI (robotics, human-centered intelligent systems, vision, language and reasoning); Cybersecurity, networks and systems; Theoretical computer science.
Our PhD with integrated research studies is a four-year, full-time PhD which has 120 credits of additional research training spread over the first two years. This additional research training involves taught modules in research methods and in specialist advanced subjects related to the research topic undertaken.

MSc
Summary
If you want to establish a career in software development, and your first degree is not in computer science, then our MSc Computer Science is designed for you.
Today’s digital society relies on high quality computer systems to deliver services that matter, when, where and to whom they are needed.
Computational devices are everywhere: your car, your hospital, your bank, your supermarket, your phone, your doorbell. The global networks over which they interact follow you around and include data that is both highly personal and yet vast. The complexity and significance of the interactions between these devices, these networks and these data are accelerating.
Yet, beneath this unimaginable complexity, a relatively small set of principles supports this digital eco-system upon which modern society is so reliant. This course initiates your career to shape this digital eco-system to do better things in the decades ahead.
Bringing together computer science theory with modern software development practice, on this course we will equip you with sought-after skills and knowledge in:
-
software engineering
-
database systems
-
object-oriented programming
-
the latest developments in AI
We aim to help you become a confident problem-solver, empowered by a robust understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of the subject as well as the tools and techniques to adapt and apply theory to real life challenges. You will develop highly sought after, life-long skills that help you develop a rewarding career in a wide range of businesses and organisations - and the people they serve.
| Study type | Taught |
|---|---|
| Level | RQF Level 7 |
| Entry requirements | 2:2 honours degree in any subject. Note that applicants with a recent degree in a subject area related to Computer Science are advised to apply for MSc Advanced Computer Science, or another specialist MSc option. Applicants with a non-standard background will be considered on a case-by-case basis. |
