[DMANET] PhD Scholarship in Network Science and Data Science

Dear Colleague,
​
A fully-funded PhD scholarship is available under the supervision of Dr. Yilun Shang at Computer and Information Sciences Department of Northumbria University, Newcastle, UK​
​
Complex network analysis and resilience in large-scale multi-layer networks ​
​
The goal of this project is to investigate and develop new data science approaches to model large-scale networks. Recent advances in network science have enabled researchers to understand the resilience of large-scale topological systems and develop algorithms to improve their robustness in the presence of different classes of failures and perturbations. This project aims to further enhance the understanding of large-scale complex systems and create a platform to translate fundamental research into real-world impact. ​
​
Deadline for applications: Friday 25 January 2019​
​
Start Date: 1 October 2019 ​
​
Funding: The studentship is available to Students Worldwide, and covers full fees and a full stipend, paid for three years at RCUK rates (for 2018/19, this is £14,777 pa)​
​
