Man Group PhD awards in Signal Processing and Statistics - Study in the Statistical Laboratory


Man Group PhD awards are available to new PhD students (whether UK/EU or overseas) in the Signal Processing and Communications Laboratory (Department of Engineering) or the Statistical Laboratory (Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics), whose research is statistical in nature and involves a significant practical data modelling component.

The awards provide 'top-up' funding of £9,000 a year for three years (£27,000 in total) in order to supplement other funding sources. Five awards are available to start in the academic year 2010-11, and three more to start in the following year. They will be awarded competitively among outstanding PhD students who meet the above criteria.

The awards are supported by Man Group plc, a member of the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index and the FTSE4Good Index.  Man also supports many awards, charities and initiatives around the world, including sponsorship of the Man Booker literary prizes.  Further information on the Man Group can be found at www.mangroupplc.com
