The Knowledge Media Institute
KMi is a 60-strong, rapidly expanding interdisciplinary laboratory
founded at the pioneering Open University in 1995. KMi is located in
a purpose designed lab at the OU's main campus in Milton Keynes, an
hour from London. KMi undertakes high-profile advanced research and
development in Knowledge Media: the convergence of Cognitive and
Learning Sciences, Artificial Intelligence, Multimedia, Telematics,
and Human-Computer Interaction.
We offer a stimulating and well-endowed research environment, widely
acknowledged to be at the leading edge of research and development,
particularly in the semantic web, knowledge management, open
supported learning, and web media. Our PhD development programme
combines the best of European and US models, and you will be joining
a growing, active PhD community. The style, impact and content of our
work are described in detail at http://kmi.open.ac.uk
Full time PhD Studentships
There are Research Studentships in KMi for highly motivated
researchers interested in pursuing a fulltime 3 year doctorate under
supervision. KMi sees PhD students as critical to its mission, and
awards Studentships above the national average - see the website for
details. You will be joining an active group of fellow students, in a
superbly equipped environment.
Applying for a place
You are strongly encouraged to contact the lead researcher of a
project that matches your interests
[http://kmi.open.ac.uk/news/studentships-list.html] to discuss ideas
for your proposal (Studentships are highly competitive, so there has
to be a supervisor here to 'champion' your application).
The requirements for writing a Proposal, Application Form, and
background information are on the website:

We look forward to hearing from you,
Simon Buckingham Shum
PhD Coordinator
