    About

    Course overview

    While pursuing excellence in research and education, we also aim to optimise our positive impact on society—examples include collaborations with industry partners and charities, commercialisation activities and an extensive wider participation programme.

    Whether you seek to work in academia, industry or government, this PhD empowers you with the theoretical and/or applied knowledge and skills in the most demanded areas of Computer Science to succeed in your career.

    I chose the University as there are some of the leading researchers in the field of Computer Science and specifically natural computation at Birmingham, which for me was the important deciding factor as it was my chosen field of study.
