We welcome applications to undertake research towards MPhil and PhD degrees in Computing. Research at Worcester has grown significantly in the last 10 years as the University itself has expanded. As a research student, you will join a vibrant student community in our Research School and become part of our dynamic research environment.

Throughout your MPhil or PhD, you'll benefit from a dedicated research student office in the Business School, membership of our research groups and a second research supervisor, who will offer you additional support and guidance throughout your studies. Our supervisory team have expertise in a wide range of computing areas. Still, they are particularly interested in supporting topics such as computer games, e-business, social media, and technology-driven behaviour change.

A key feature of a University of Worcester education is the golden triangle of professional education, which interweaves expert knowledge and practical learning. At the three points of the triangle are the well-motivated student, an inspiring educator, and an expert professional mentor. With close industry links across a range of sectors, Worcester students have opportunities to access work placements, earn as they learn in jobs relevant to their studies, and volunteer, all helping to build their skills, confidence, and employability.
