WHAT IS DIGITAL CIVICS?

The Digital Civics Centre for Doctoral Training (CDT) is a £4.7m EPSRC-funded
project. We set out to train a minimum of 55 PhD researchers over five cohorts
between 2014 - 2024 across a range of various academic disciplines such as
computing, education, public health, politics and sociology.

Our CDT students and graduates are contributing world-class research to the
emerging field of Digital Civics, exploring how digital technologies can empower
citizens and communities, as well as creating real-world impact for the partners
they work with.
