Our Research
We are a department with an outstanding research profile. In the recent national Research Assessment Exercise our Computer Science research output was ranked 4th out of 81 university submissions in the UK.
Our research is strongly inter-disciplinary and combines practical application with a strong theoretical understanding. It is concerned with systems-wide issues in computer science ranging from mathematical foundations through visual and cognitive processes to media technology, human-centred design and collaborative systems. See our current research projects.
Centres
We host a University Research Centre and a heavily-funded national Centre supporting research students in industry:
