About NGCM

Excellence in Software Engineering, Scientific Computing, and Data Science for engineering and science research.

The University of Southampton is a leading centre for doctoral training in computational modelling across science and engineering disciplines. We foster excellence in software engineering, scientific computing and data science through:
  • advanced training,
  • collaborative research community,
  • professional software engineering support.
The University of Southampton hosted The EPSRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Next Generation Computational Modelling (NGCM) from 2015-2023. Drawing on support from industry, supercomputing facilities and expertise from across the academia, the Centre achieved:
  • Fifty research students tackling advanced problems across engineering and science,
  • High productivity: more than 200[??] peer-reviewed journal articles,
  • Award-winning science communication and outreach,
  • Sought-after graduates, fluently applying computational techniques to real-world problems.
The NGCM programme provided a tailored one year taught programme, providing a rigorous introduction to scientific computing and data science, and an ongoing programme of support during a further three years of doctoral research.
  • be trained in state-of-the-art best practice for computational modelling
  • be exposed to industrial and real-world problems
  • become cross-disciplinary communicators
  • become cross-disciplinary computational problem solvers
The ESPRC Centre for Doctoral Training in Next Generation Computational Modelling is no longer admitting new students. Refer to the University of Southampton website for current opportunities for Taught Postgraduate Study and for PhDs and Research Degrees.
