Computer Science
Centre for Informatics and Computing
MMU’s Centre for Informatics and Computing (MMUCIC) focuses on four overarching themes:
- Future Networks and Distributed Systems
- Image Processing and Human Motion Analysis
- Intelligent Systems and Logic in Artificial Intelligence
- Novel Computation
MMUCIC has benefited from the Faculty of Science and Engineering’s £42 million re-development, increasing and enhancing the Centre’s infrastructure base to provide state-of-the-art teaching and research laboratories, including a high-performance computing laboratory.
The dynamic staff groups within the Centre have an ongoing commitment to
collaboration and the Faculty’s academic and research staff are the
Centre’s most important resource. The combination of an active research
enhancement policy within a positive research culture has enabled the Centre’s
research environment to flourish and secure their standing on both national
and international platforms.
MMUCIC aims to sustain a strong research culture to encourage the growth of new research groups and allow existing groups to flourish. Through collaboration between sub-groups and pursuing a stronger profile internationally through high quality research, MMUCIC plans to increase research-active staff and develop long-term relationships with traditionally research-led institutions nationally and internationally.
