Accepting PhD Students

PhD projects

Prospective PhD students should send an email to [email protected] providing their CV and an explanation of their research interests in the area of security and privacy. Please contact me early so the appropriate scholarship or industrial partnership may be identified. A PhD student can expect to seek under my guidance security and privacy problems that appear in emerging systems, and to use those problems to drive better methodologies for identifying and eliminating threats. See, for example, the thesis of my former PhD student Semen Yurkov, who considered privacy-preserving smartcard-based payments.

Students with strong mathematical and computer science skills are suited to topics in security. I can also propose software engineering problems, e.g., prototyping and evaluating emerging privacy-preserving technology. Students with an entrepreneurial streak are also welcome. See my personalised homepage for a selection of topics, across several domains (logic, space systems, ePassports, ePayments, personal data, concurrency theory, proof theory, API composition, threat modelling, etc.):
