Several types of funding are available to outstanding applicants, including Imperial College and departmental scholarships, Marie Curie Fellowships and support from individual grants. Â The ISN Group participates in numerous EU FP7, UK EPSRC and other funded research programs, with strong activity in a broad range of research domains, including Agent Technologies, Intelligent Networks, Biologically-Inspired Robotics and Assistive Technologies, Self-Organising and Complex Systems, Computer Vision, Social Networks, Machine Learning, Advanced Data Communications and Telecommunication Networks, and Applications in Energy Savings and the Smart Grid. The group is highly inter-disciplinary and collaborates with academic and industrial organisations throughout the world.
Applicants should have a first-class or good upper second MEng honours degree, or a BEng honours degree with a Master’s degree (or equivalent) in Electronic Engineering, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics or related discipline, excellent programming and mathematical skills, and a demonstrable interest in and engagement with pure and applied research. They should be self-motivated, able to formulate and implement new ideas, and interested in collaboration and team work.
