Graduate Teaching Assistantship (GTA) Opportunities in the School (study for a PhD and teach)

Eligibility: UK and EU

Deadline for applications: 5 February 2010

World class facilities are the basis for the delivery of postgraduate research activity in the School of Computing, Science & Engineering (MPhil, PhD and postdoctoral studies). Our research ethos is one of solving ‘real world’ problems in collaboration with industry and commerce. The success of our real-world focus and interdisciplinary ethos was confirmed in the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise (RAE), which placed Salford in the top third of UK universities for research (in terms of Research Power). 83% of work submitted was rated as ‘internationally recognised’ (2* and above) and 43% of work was rated as ‘world-leading’ (4*) or ‘internationally excellent’ (3*).
