One-year EPSRC Studentships - MRes Design and Evaluation of Advanced
Interactive Systems
A small number of EPSRC quota studentships (stipend: £10,500;
one-year, full-time only) have recently become available for this
novel, interdisciplinary Masters programme. We are seeking graduates
who have, as a minimum, a 2(i) honours degree or equivalent in
Computing, Psychology or another relevant discipline. EPSRC fees-only
funding is also available for outstanding candidates from EU
countries.
The course has the following features:
* An integrated curriculum that brings together strengths in social
science, psychology and computing to address core topics in designing
and evaluating interfaces, from empirical studies of human-system
interaction to technological advances in interactive systems;
* A unique collaborative design project module, where students work
together designing for an audience of industrial and academic
end-users;
* Dissertation projects undertaken at collaborating end-user sites
under academic supervision;
* An exciting and internationally-renowned environment for advanced
interactive environment research.
