Masters programme
The Division runs a popular one-year MPhil in Machine Learning and Machine Intelligence.
Centre for Doctoral Training
We are part of the EPSRC CDT in Agri-Food Robotics ‘Agriforwards’, run in conjuntion with the University of Lincoln and the University of East Anglia.
PhD Studentships
We are always looking for bright PhD students to join us, since they form an essential component of our efforts in research, and have the option of contributing to undergraduate teaching, while we in turn hope to provide a unique research training environment. Though the Division is made up of four research groups (Computational and Biological Learning, Control, Machine Intelligence and Signal Processing and Communications), there is a good deal of overlap, especially in the sense of appropriate skills and motivation, so we suggest that you have a look through all the research group pages. They are a great resource to learn about our division, our members and their research interests, and the kinds of projects being carried out.
Specific studentships are advertised on the Department’s vacancies page. Although it is not necessary before applying, if you have doubts about whether your background is suitable for a particular PhD studentship or if you have questions about a specific research group, you are welcome to contact one of the faculty members directly. Due to their high email volume, you may not receive an immediate response but they will endeavour to get back to you as quickly as possible.
For more information on the research MPhil and PhD programme, please visit the Research Study page at the Department of Engineering Website. Applications for these programmes can be submitted via the University Postgraduate Admissions Pages for MPhil and PhD. Most supervisors do not accept MPhil students so you are advised to contact the supervisor directly before applying.
The Information Division is committed to ensure and nurture a positive and inclusive ethos so that under-represented groups can be supported and encouraged and that diversity is valued. We welcome applications from all suitably qualified candidates.
