PhD Studentships in Computer Science, Electrical Engineering and Electronics Engineering

Υποτροφίες

The University of Southampton is delighted to invite applications for up to 35 fully-funded PhD studentships in the department of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) tenable from 1st October 2015

The Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) has an outstanding reputation for research and teaching in computer science, electrical engineering and electronic engineering. We are committed to attracting the world’s most talented students and developing a positive culture where everyone can develop to their full potential.

We have an international research reputation, a thriving graduate school, and excellent facilities. We currently have around 500 researchers, encompassing 100 academic staff (40 full professors), 150 research staff, and 250 PhD students.

The topics for the studentships should relate to the interests of one of the Department's research areas:

  • Computer Science and Software Engineering covering a wide range of multidisciplinary subject areas, including agent-based computing, digital libraries, decentralised information systems, e-business technologies, grid and distributed computing, human-computer interaction, Web science, knowledge technologies, multimedia, pervasive computing and networks, trust and provenance, formal modelling and refinement, system verification, software architectures and emerging computer paradigms, semantic models and theories, security and dependability in information systems.
  • Electronic Engineering, covering a wide range of multidisciplinary subject areas, including advanced MOS and bipolar devices; algorithms for analogue and digital simulation and test; analogue and RF integrated circuit design; ARTIC; bioelectronics and microfluidics; electronic systems design; holographic multimedia; intelligent sensor systems; lab on chip; MEMs; next-generation wireless systems; quantum communication; quantum electronic devices; self-powered Microsystems; silicon-based optoelectronics; system-on-chip.
  • Electrical Power Engineering covering a wide range of multidisciplinary subject areas, associated with physics, materials science and engineering aspects of high electric field phenomena. Theoretical studies are available, in which modelling and simulation feature prominently, together with a broad spectrum of experimental projects.

or one of the sponsoring projects:

If you want to undertake doctoral research in a stimulating environment, to gain a rigorous research training, to be able to take advantage of outstanding facilities and be surrounded by enthusiastic and highly committed people from a range of different and interesting backgrounds, then this is the place to be.

Applicants should hold, or expect to obtain, a first or upper-second class degree in computer science, software engineering, mathematics, electrical engineering, electronics engineering or an appropriate engineering discipline. There is no application deadline and applications will be assessed continuously.

Applicants must obtain the support of a potential supervisor in the Department prior to submitting their application. For more information, please see our webpages www.ecs.soton.ac.uk/phd/research and sponsoring projects.

Both Electronics and Computer Science and the University of Southampton hold an Athena Swan Bronze Award, demonstrating their commitment to provide equal opportunities and to advance the representation of women in STEM/M subjects: science, technology, engineering, mathematics and medicine.

Conditions of funding apply according to the funding source. A limited number of overseas studentships are available.
