Lero - The Irish Software Engineering Research Centre
Lero Graduate School in Software Engineering (LGSSE)
Structured PhD in Software Engineering
Lero Graduate School in Software Engineering (LGSSE) offers a new four-year PhD program provided jointly by the four leading Irish Universities involved in Lero (Dublin City University, Trinity College Dublin, University College Dublin and University of Limerick). The LGSSE program cycle begins in September 2008.
The first year includes taught modules in research theory and practice, as well as technical software engineering modules. Also during the first year the candidate will prepare a research proposal that will be the basis for a three-year individual research project. In this way LGSSE combines the best features of the European and US models of PhD education.
We are now offering 12 generous four-year PhD studentships covering stipend, equipment and fees, awarded on a competitive basis.
