About

Computer Science at Keele University was founded in 1972. Our research has expanded considerably over this time, particularly in recent years. Today, we conduct research across a range of areas and we collaborate on pioneering and multidisciplinary research with local, regional, national and international partners.

At Keele, our research aligns strongly with research institutes and networks including:

• Digital Society Institute 
• Institute of Sustainable Futures 
• Keele Data Science Network
• Keele Smart Energy Network Demonstrator 
• Keele Virtual and Augmented Reality Network

Computer science research facilities encompass:

• High-performance computation resources including a data centre powered by on-site renewable energy
• A Virtual Reality and Interaction Research Laboratory
• High-specification graphics-capable computers, VR headsets and eye-trackers, and 3D scanners and printers
• Makerspace resources including Arduino and Raspberry Pi devices
• The Keele Smart Energy Network Demonstrator 

Additionally, via partnerships and collaborations, computer science researchers have access to leading research laboratories and resources.
