Funding for PhD students

The Department’s foremost philanthropic priority is to provide essential funding for PhD students across Computer Science and Technology, who may otherwise be unable to pursue their studies due to financial barriers. As funding from research councils has decreased in recent years, philanthropic support has become increasingly critical. Our postgraduates are at the forefront of advancing knowledge and developing innovative solutions to the world’s most urgent challenges. Your support can make all the difference in empowering these future leaders to realise their full potential.
