LINCS Doctoral Training Programme
Since 2015, the Leverhulme Doctoral Training Scheme has underpinned the Interdisciplinary Network on Cybersecurity and Society (LINCS) at Queen’s University Belfast (QUB).
LINCS builds on existing interdisciplinary work between the Centre for Secure Information Technologies (CSIT) in the School of Electronics, Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EEECS) and the Senator George J. Mitchell Institute for Global Peace, Security and Justice (MIGPSJ) to create a lasting bridge between two of the University’s four Global Research Institutes established as flagships of interdisciplinary excellence. LINCS opens up new avenues of enquiry, allowing researchers to develop new collaborations and offer interdisciplinary support to its Leverhulme Doctoral Scholars.
