3-year PhD Studentships (Department of Computing)

The Department of Computing at Goldsmiths is pleased to announce up to three 3-year full-time PhD studentships, available from October 2010.

The Department of Computing is a leading centre for the study of computer science within creative, cognitive and social contexts. Research groups within the Department include Intelligent Sound and Music Systems, and Narrative and Interactive Media. In addition, the Department is an integral part of two College-wise research centres: the Centre for Cognition, Computation and Culture, and the Goldsmiths Digital Studios.

The Department offers two PhD programmes:

  • PhD in Computing (covering all aspects of computer science, and examined by thesis and viva)
  • PhD in Arts and Computational Technology (containing a practice-led component, and examined by thesis, viva, and a practical component in a form appropriate to the artistic and technical project)

Studentships, consisting of awards covering fees (home or overseas) and a stipend of £13,590 per annum, will be awarded to exceptional candidates with the potential to enhance the Department's overall research, and/or to make a significant contribution to the work of a research group or centre. Individual staff research expertise can be viewed at http://www.goldsmiths.ac.uk/computing/staff-research/

Applicants should hold, or expect to have obtained, a Master's degree in a relevant discipline by the time the studentship starts. As part of the studentship, the successful candidates will be expected to carry out light teaching or administrative duties within the Department. Applications should be sent by e-mail to Dr Christophe Rhodes (c.rhodes@gold.ac.uk), and should consist of a covering letter, a research proposal (a maximum of 2,000 words) and a full CV, giving contact details for two academic referees.

Application deadline: 23rd July 2010
Interviews: week of 2nd August 2010

For informal enquiries or any more information, please contact Prof. Mark d'Inverno.
