Dear all
Please could you pass this on to any final year undergraduates or masters students who may be interested.
The
Centre for Data Analytics and Society is now open for applications for PhD students to start
in October.
Details for all available projects can be found on our available
projects page
The projects are all partnered with an external organisation giving you the opportunity to work closely with industry, opportunities range from exploring different
approaches to health and obesity, working with crime data, to developing automated processes for use with forensic testing.
We are looking for graduates from a wide range of backgrounds with interests in how data can be used to address social science questions using statistical or predictive techniques. Students will work
with a multi-disciplinary team of supervisors as well as having the opportunity to work with external partners on real life problems.
The programme is an integrated one (+4), where students undertake an MSc in Data Analytics over the first two years which provides the foundation skills to complete
your research project.
Deadline 19th April
