Many excellent opportunities exist for postgraduate research within a thriving research community.
You will be well supervised by well-qualified and experienced academic staff and supported by excellent facilities. The Faculty has a long-standing reputation for research in computing and computational mathematics, recently endorsed by the continued award of a rating of 4 in the recent Research Assessment Exercise. The Faculty also contributed staff to four other areas gaining ratings of 4 in physics, and 3 in mechanical, aeronautical and manufacturing engineering, education and music. We see the provision of high quality research training as an essential component of our research activity. We currently have several major research groups, together with research projects offered by all six departments, which attract external support from national and international companies, government departments and establishments, research councils and European Union sources.
