About

The PhD in Computer Science offered at The  University of Cambridge is the primary research degree that can be taken in the Computer Laboratory. The Cambridge PhD is a three-year programme of individual research on a topic agreed by the student and the Laboratory, under the guidance of a staff member as the student's supervisor.

Overview

All research students are admitted to read for the PhD Computer Science degree at The  University of Cambridge, on a probationary basis and will be registered for the Certificate of Postgraduate Study (CPGS) in the first instance.

 During this year students may do some additional coursework and will write a research report that is likely to form the foundation of the eventual PhD thesis. 

Features

  • At the end of the third term and on completion of the CPGS, students whose performance indicates that they would be able to complete a PhD in a reasonable time will be upgraded to PhD status. 
  • A student who is not upgraded to PhD status will normally be awarded the CPGS ( and if no more than three terms have been completed) but will leave before submitting a PhD thesis.
