Collaborative research in the School of Computer Science 

We have produced the Collaborative research in the School of Computer Science: Making a difference brochure to showcase the various ways the school has worked in partnership with industry, featuring case studies and information from across all research groups. 

Join our future research leaders

World-class talent, working in multidisciplinary teams and with inspiring leaders, are at the heart of capturing new ideas and translating these into world-changing solutions.

As a research-led institution, the University of Nottingham recognises the value and contribution of early career researchers in delivering its ambitious, high-quality research vision. In order to enhance this vital aspect of our research network we will recruit 100 Nottingham Research and Anne McLaren Fellows by the end of 2020.
