The CDT in NLP offers unique, tailored doctoral training comprising both taught courses and a doctoral dissertation over four years. Each student will take a set of courses designed to complement their existing expertise and give them an interdisciplinary perspective on NLP. The studentships are fully funded for the four years and come with a generous allowance for travel, equipment and research costs. The CDT brings together researchers in NLP, speech, linguistics, cognitive science and design informatics from across the University of Edinburgh. Students will be supervised by a world-class faculty comprising almost 60 supervisors and will benefit from cutting edge computing and experimental facilities, including a large GPU cluster and eye-tracking, speech, virtual reality and visualisation labs. The CDT involves a number of industrial partners, including Amazon, Facebook, Huawei, Microsoft, Naver, Toshiba, and the BBC. Links also exist with the Alan Turing Institute and the Bayes Centre.
