The School of Computing, Science & Engineering has developed into a modern and dynamic environment to study and is well placed to further the needs of modern society. There is an ethos of forward thinking and innovation with which to service the national and global economies. The School is made up of specialist course teams: • Acoustics, Audio and Video • Computer Science, Multimedia & Telecommunications • Engineering • Physics and Materials There is clear cross discipline activity and a blurring of the boundaries between traditional academic disciplines to provide a wide and varied choice to help you develop you career prospects. Most of our programmes are accredited by an appropriate professional body; this strengthens links with our industrial partners to ensure that your study is appropriate and relevant to the market place. At Salford we have built up a reputation for ‘real world’ teaching and ground-breaking research. Our diverse community of over 3000 postgraduate students also benefit from our strong links with industry. • We were ranked in the top third of UK universities for research in the last Government Research Assessment Exercise (RAE). • Salford is ranked in the top 10 in the UK for teaching • Over 93% of our postgraduate students are in employment or go on to further study within six months of graduating. Research For Postgraduate Research Applications and Enquiries contact Keren Maloney: k.maloney@Salford.ac.uk Tel 0161 295 5115 Research at Salford is carried out in one of the Research and Graduate College's nine cross-discipline Research Institutes. Research-active staff from the School of Computing, Science and Engineering are members of the following research institutes: • Institute for Material Research The Institute was established in 1999 to provide a focus for research on materials at the University. Its members are scientists and engineers who are active in the development, characterisation and exploitation of new materials, both structural and functional. The Institute employs around 30 academic staff, 20 research staff and over 80 research students. The work of the Institute is divided into the following 12 research groups:
Professor Ian Morrison for further information T +44 (0) 161 295 5303 i.morrison@salford.ac.uk • Informatics Research Institute (IRIS) Centre for Networking and Telecommunications Research The CNTR is based at the University of Salford, UK, and undertakes both pure and applied research into the development of the computer networking technologies and multimedia application systems which are fundamental to the future of the information age. Its work is supported through research grants and a strong association and collaboration with the telecommunications industry. Centre for Robotics & Automation The Centre’s activities have their origin in 1987 when Salford University was chosen as the site of the United Kingdoms National Advanced Robotics Research Centre. Since then Robotics has formed a major strategic direction within Engineering in the University and Salford Researchers have been at the forefront of strategic national developments initiated by DTI, DEFRA and EPSRC and international developments within the E.U. The Centre currently hosts two government sponsored EPSRC networks in Food Automation and Robotics. Contact: Professor Grahame Cooper (g.s.cooper@salford.ac.uk) Computer Science Research Centre The Centre is a focus for research activities aimed at developing new models, techniques, and methodologies, which enable novel real world applications of computing. Its current research themes include machine learning & data mining, interactive systems & media, and innovations in computer science education. • The Research Institute for Built and Human Environment (BuHu) Acoustics Research Centre The Centre was rated 6* (the highest grade) in the 2001 Research Assessment Exercise. Salford University has a 30 year history of acoustics research. Principle areas include building and architectural acoustics, environmental acoustics, outdoor sound propagation, remote acoustic sensing of metrological conditions, subjective response especially for room acoustics and audio systems, digital signal processing, transducer design and active control. Salford is one of the two UK universities that provide acoustics training at degree, masters and doctoral level. The Centre has a portfolio of fundamental and applied research projects funded by research councils, government bodies, and industry. The Centre has United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) accredited testing facilities that can make acoustic and audio measurements to national and international standards. It operates the UK’s premier testing laboratory for hearing protectors, serving an international group of industrial customers; it has a calibration laboratory for acoustics’ instrumentation and thermal testing facilities. The facilities were rebuilt in 2005 with a £2M investment. Consultancy and commercial projects with the acoustics industry form an important part of the Centre’s work. Its facilities and staff expertise are applied to practical and actual scenarios. As a result, industry and commerce benefit, and the Centre’s courses are kept up-to-date with the current industry practice. These commercial activities also attract funding to support undergraduate and postgraduate ventures. Contact Professor Lam T +44 (0)161 295 5684 Y.W.Lam@salford.ac.uk Research at Salford is highly rated — both BuHu and IRIS achieved 6* in the last Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), and the University of Salford is rated in the top third of all UK Universities for research. The University of Salford campus is less than a mile and a half (three kilometres) from Manchester city centre, one of Britain’s most exciting cities. It has excellent transport links with Salford Crescent railway station on campus and a regular bus service. It is only a couple of minutes’ drive from the motorway network and less than 20 minutes’ drive from Manchester International Airport. The University of Salford - now with a student population of over 18,000 and a staff of over 2,500 - is on the leading edge of research innovation in many fields, including virtual reality, magnetics and optics, genetic algorithms, building design and prosthetics. Nearly 3,000 international students from over 100 different countries are enrolled in the University's 14 schools and 13 research institutes. Over the next five years the University will invest £130 million on new and improved buildings and facilities. This includes the newly completed Mary Seacole building for health-related studies and a development for the Adelphi Arts and Cultural Quarter. |
