Our Computer Science Integrated PhD combines taught Master's computer science modules with research.
This Integrated PhD in Computer Science provides an opportunity to make a unique contribution to computer science research. You'll work within a research group, guided by experts and supported by a team of advisers.
Our Computer Science Integrated PhD (IPhD) allows you to match your studies with your interests. You can choose from a wide range of modules and select your own focus for your final project.
Research excellence
We are leading on several initiatives of national and international significance:
- EPSRC Northern Health Futures (NortHFutures) Hub (since 2023)
- EPSRC National Edge AI Hub (since 2024)
We are also collaborating with our regional partners on major consortium projects such as the EPSRC £2.5m investment in the North East Space Communications Accelerator (NESCA). This is a collaboration between:
- Northumbria University
- Durham University
- Newcastle University
- the North East Combined Authority
- Space North East England
- North East Space Leadership Group
- and fourteen industry partners
It is one of seven Place Based Impact Acceleration Account (PBIAA) scheme projects aimed at strengthening emerging and existing research to kickstart economic growth and address regional needs.
Digital innovation
We are a hub of digital innovation. You'll benefit from our:
- leadership of the National Edge AI Hub, next-generation innovations via edge computing
- recognition as an Academic Centre of Excellence in Cyber Security, supported by the National Cyber Security Centre and the EPSRC
- direct link with the UK's National Innovation Centre for Data
- partnership with The Alan Turing Institute, the UK’s national institute for data science and AI
Our computer science research
Based in the School of Computing, our research reflects our strengths, capabilities and critical mass. Research supervision is available under our seven research areas.
- Advanced Model-Based Engineering and Reasoning (AMBER)
- Open Lab
- Interdisciplinary Computing and Complex BioSystems (ICOS)
- Scalable Computing
