About the MSP Group

Our vision is to use mathematics to understand the nature of computation, and to turn that understanding into the next generation of programming languages. We see the mathematical foundations of computation and programming as inextricably linked — we study one so as to develop the other.

The group has 8 (soon to be 9) academic staff, and a lively community of PhD students. More about our research and members is available here: https://msp.cis.strath.ac.uk/people.html

Get in Touch

If you’re interested, please drop an email to any of us, with a few words about your research interests and which scheme you have in mind. We’re happy to discuss project ideas and help you with the application, and the application process. There is also institutional support from the university for preparing the same.

Please contact us as soon as possible, but ideally at least two months before the deadline. Also, please feel free to forward this to anyone who might be interested.
