PhD track in Computer science

The PSL PhD track in Computer science is a fully-funded 5-year program structured around two phases. During the first phase, students draw on courses from ��̳’s research master in computer science and start working towards their research project. The research master is a stepping-stone towards the second phase of the PhD track, during which students work on their research project in one of PSL’s research labs (in particular, and ). During that second phase, students are mentored to gain state-of-the-arts research methods, write academic papers, present at academic conferences and prepare for the academic job market.

Phase 1 | Research master in Computer science

PhD track students will choose between two curricula in Master's degree Year 1 (M1):

(IDD)

In second year (M2), they will then complete their research master in one of the following tracks:

(IASD)
(MODO)
(MPRI)

Students will explore advanced topics, and will gain expert knowledge, in computer science and some of its applications, such as artificial intelligence.

Phase 2 | Doctoral studies

During their doctoral years, students will benefit from the following programs:

PSL interdisciplinary courses: ��̳ is a strongly interdisciplinary university with special courses that cut across our disciplinary graduate programs and are open to all graduate students;
Regular research seminars held at and , which students are strongly advised to attend.
