Our research groups are strong, broad-based, disciplinary teams associated with laboratories, which frame the focus for strategic development within the department.
Research centres and institutes are large scale interdisciplinary teams established by Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ or across institutions. They support Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ in advancing its broad disciplinary strengths.
Research Excellence
Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ Computer ScienceÌýis at the global forefront of experimental computer science research, focusing on real-world data and computer and software systems and their use.
Our approach emphasises methodological rigour and reproducibility, determining our strategy and underpinning our research education.Ìý
TheÌýResearch Excellence Framework (REF), which assesses the quality of research in UK higher education institutes, ranked us second in the UK for research power and first in England.
Over 80% of our Impact case studies were rated ‘outstanding’ (4*) and 100%Ìýwere rated either ‘outstanding’ (4*) or having ‘very considerable impact’ (3*).Ìý
The Alan Turing Institute
Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ Computer Science plays a key role in the relationship between Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ and the Alan Turing Institute, the UK National Institute for Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ is a founding member and joint-venture partner of the Turing.
Our academics, researchers and PhD students are involved in several projects in a variety of fields from Security & Privacy to Machine Learning, from Digital Health to AI fairness. Find out moreÌýabout Â鶹´«Ã½ÊÓƵÍøÕ¾ and the Alan Turing Institute.
