Department of Computer Science The Department of Computer Science is consistently recognised as the internationally leading centre of research and teaching across a broad spectrum of computer science. We are proud of our history 3 as one of the longest-established computer science departments in the country, as we continue to provide first-rate undergraduate and postgraduate teaching to some of the world’s brightest minds. Our world-class research is conducted across our research themes, which span the broad spectrum of computer science, ranging from foundational discoveries to interdisciplinary work with significant real-world impact. A significant majority of our staff are active in externally sponsored research, with both government and industrial funding. Our 2021 Research Excellence Framework submission saw 81% of our research activity ranked as world-leading (4*), with the rest ranked as internationally excellent (3*). We have had 19 ERC Fellowships in the last decade (including 7 Advanced) and we have 6 Fellows of the Royal Society, 4 Turing/Turing AI Fellows, a Fellow of the Royal Academy of Engineering and a Fellow of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. We enjoy close links with other Oxford University departments (Mathematics, Engineering, Physics, Statistics and Life sciences) and work collaboratively with Oxford research groups and institutes (including the Oxford Internet Institute and the Oxford e-Research Centre). At present, the department has 71 faculty members and 98 researchers housed across multiple sites within the University’s South Parks Road Science Area and the neighbouring area. Through a programme of continuous improvement, the department is committed to promoting and nurturing a diverse, inclusive and equal culture, with a particular focus on growth in gender equality (from our students to our staff). The department holds over £75m of external funding of which £58m is research. Research in the department is currently managed in ten themes:  Algorithms and Complexity Theory, led by Professor Leslie Ann Goldberg, focusses on determining the inherent difficulty of computational problems, classifying problems according to this inherent difficulty, and designing and analysing algorithms that use computational resources as efficiently as possible.  Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, led by Professor Michael Wooldridge, focuses on theoretical foundations of AI, multiagent systems, deep learning, reinforcement learning, and computational linguistics.  Automated Verification, led by Professor Marta Kwiatkowska, investigates theory and practice of formal verification and correct-by-construction synthesis for software and hardware systems.  Computational Biology and Health Informatics, led by Professor Blanca Rodriquez, is concerned with computational approaches for biomedical research and healthcare innovation.  Data Knowledge and Action, led by Professor Ian Horrocks, includes databases, knowledge representation and reasoning.  Human Centred Computing, led by Professor Nigel Shadbolt, includes human computer interaction, social computing, and the worldwide web.  Programming Languages, led by Professor Nobuko Yoshida, includes functional programming, program analysis, and programming language foundations.  Quantum, led by Professor Jonathan Barrett, focusses on quantum computing including quantum software, causality in quantum theory, quantum cryptography and foundations of quantum computing.  Security, led by Professor Ivan Martinovic, specialises in cybersecurity, protocol analysis, systems security, trusted computing, and networking.  Systems, led by Professor Niki Trigoni, focusses especially on cyber physical systems. We plan to substantially broaden our research in systems to complement our existing research areas. 4 Our greatest asset is our people. We consistently attract the best staff and students, and thanks to them, we have been ranked as the world's leading university for Computer Sciences for seven years in a row by the Times Higher Education. We have held an Athena Swan Bronze Award since 2014, reflecting our longstanding commitment to promoting and supporting gender equality.
