Have you ever thought about writing a masters
or PhD with a focus on data visualization?
If so, come talk to me.
There are funding opportunities in
the form of
scholarships, bursaries, and other sources of financial aid
for those wishing to take up postgraduate study.
Collaboration with Industry:
Are you a business interested in collaborating with
researchers? If so, please let us know.
Also, We are looking for students interested in undertaking
leading research work in the field of data visualization.
Data visualization, a vibrant, exciting and rapidly expanding
sub-field of computer science, is concerned with the use of
computers and their graphics capabilities in order to generate
meaningful imagery that provides insight into data from various
sources.
Please let me know if you have questions or would like to talk about
applying.
Research:
Bob's main research interests lie in data visualization including
scientific and information visualization and visual analytics.
The fastest, easiest, and most enjoyable way to get an idea of
the research we have done is to simply watch our visualization
research videos.
These are the only research videos of their kind in the
entire United Kingdom.
The videos are availabe on
YouTube.
