The CDE’s purpose is to train the next generation of leaders in the Film Visual Effects, Computer Games, Virtual Worlds and Animation industries.

We are offering a unique doctoral program that places researchers directly in companies to work on real projects. Under academic supervision your work will form the basis of an Engineering or Professional Doctorate.

You will also be supported in your research by access to a range of options from Bath and Bournemouth’s respected Masters programmes. This taught programme will be tailor made for your needs and arranged in consultation with you, your host company and academic supervisors.

Doctoral studentships are fully-funded providing fees, a tax free stipend and dedicated funding for international conferences.
