Research and Training act synergistically in a PhD in Data Science. Considering the research activities of potential supervisors from the Institute of Statistical Sciences is a good place to start when considering your Doctoral Training.
We offer fully funded studentships on our Computational Statistics and Data Science PhD programme through Compass – EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Computational Statistics and Data Science. This is carefully designed to focus Data Science into a single coherent post-graduate programme. They also maintain a list of supervisor research areas.
The School of Mathematics PhD Programme includes research in Data Science and Statistical Sciences more generally, which is a more natural route for overseas students, especially those that are self- or externally-funded.
Our students get a very rich experience on both programmes. Hear directly from COMPASS students at the Students’ Blog.
