Overview

Features

Our Computing research at Oxford Brookes University is structured into two large research centres:

Dependable Systems Engineering

The research groups in this centre are focussed on the reliability and integrity of software from a programming and software engineering perspective. Work includes formal methods for programming, the design of cloud and web based systems and applications in data mining, cyber security, e-health and advanced circuit design.

Intelligent Systems Engineering

The research groups in this centre address the application of computing to a range of intelligent computer systems. There are groups on robotics, computer vision and augmented reality as well as transport and medical systems.

Programme Structure

Research groups include:

Advanced Reliable Computer Systems Group (ARCoS)
Applied Software Engineering and Data Analytics Group (ASEDA)
Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Group (AIR)
Cloud Computing and Cybersecurity Group (CCC)
Visual Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (VAIL)

Other requirements

General requirements

Entry requirement: a recent master’s degree in a discipline appropriate to the proposed research. The master’s needs to have included research training and a research project.
In exceptional cases, applicants who have a good honours degree (or equivalent) may apply for direct registration to a PhD if they have appropriate research or professional experience at postgraduate level which has resulted in published work, written reports or other appropriate evidence of accomplishment. An unpublished master’s dissertation would not suffice in this instance.
