CDT Supervisors
Our training programme has a hugely diverse community of over 90 supervisors from across 12 different Schools and Units at the University of Edinburgh. The intention is that all CDT students will be supervised by at least two supervisors – a primary supervisor, and a second supervisor from a different discipline or school who offers complementary expertise to the primary supervisor.
Below is a list of the academics who could supervise students on the CDT – this will be updated over the coming months to include more information on supervisors, including which CDT skills domains they have expertise in. We also recommend potential applicants take a look at some of the research institutes and groups that many of the supervisors are affiliated with. This includes:
