Computing and Information Science PhD

Anglia Ruskin University

Our research groups are shaping the world with innovative technologies and applications, often in collaboration with industry. We encourage PhD candidates to take an active role in our School's research community, in areas currently ranging from Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Data Science and Applications, Imaging Technologies, Vision and Acoustics, IoT, Digital Systems and Cloud Computing, Semantic Web, Educational Technologies and Cyber Security. Much of the research our Computing, Informatics and Applications (CIA) research group undertakes is both applied and collaborative, and includes links with industrial partners. We’re particularly interested in how computational and artificial intelligence (AI) methods can be used to improve people's lives and increase productivity. The group has specific expertise in image and signal processing, data visualisation, mobile devices, 2D/3D modelling, distributed computing, wireless environments, the application of sound and imaging technology in assisted living, online virtual environments, the Internet of Things (IoT), and sensor technology.Our Cyber Security and Networking (CSN) research group has close working strategic relationships with industry, professional bodies, law enforcement, government agencies and academia in the delivery of operationally focused applied information and application security research. The primary aims of CSN are to help the UK and partner nations tackle cyber-crime, be more resilient to cyber-attacks and educate its users for a more secure cyberspace and operational business environment. The CSN research group also incorporates a Cisco Networking Academy Programme (CNAP). The goal of which is to bring infrastructure technologies and techniques to a wider audience and research new ways of applying them.
