The PhD program spans three years (or six years for part-time students), culminating in a comprehensive thesis. As one of the UK's most extensive Computer Science departments, we explore a vast array of topics. Our department houses ten specialized research groups, from Advanced Processor Technologies to Text Mining. Beyond core Computer Science research, we foster interdisciplinary collaborations with fields like mathematics, physics, medicine, and biology. The University grants the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degree to candidates who successfully complete supervised research, demonstrating their ability to conduct scholarly work and contribute original knowledge. This research must be presented in a thesis or equivalent format, meeting standards suitable for peer-reviewed publication.

The school may require a 1st Class Honours degree or international equivalent for some research projects. This requirement is specified at the discretion of the academic supervisor involved under the relevant advertised project. All applicants will need to demonstrate competency in English language. Applicants who do not already possess an acceptable English Language qualification will need to take a recognised test and attain the required English Language score: IELTS: At least 6.5 overall with 6.5 in the written component and no other subtest below 5.5.
