    Informatics is one of seven schools in the College of Science and Engineering, at the University of Edinburgh.

    It is recognised for the employability of its graduates (demand exceeds supply), its contributions to entrepreneurship, and the excellence of its research.

    Since the first Research Assessment Exercise in 1986, Informatics at Edinburgh has consistently been assessed to have more internationally excellent and world-class research than any other submission in Computer Science and Informatics.

    The latest REF 2014 results have again confirmed that ours is the largest concentration of internationally excellent research in the UK.

    We aim to ensure that our culture and systems support flexible and family-friendly working and recognise and value diversity across all our staff and students.

    The School has an active programme offering support and professional development for all staff; providing mentoring, training, and networking opportunities.
