One or two studentships are available at the Centre for Policy Modelling
(CFPM), starting immediately (or when the candidates can start). The
Studentship will be £12K pa plus fees for 3 years. Only EU students can
apply. The course of study will be centred around agent-based social
simulation, which is the core of the CFPM's work. Preference will be
given to those who already have some research experience (e.g.
research-based masters), but other candidates will be considered. To
get a flavour of our work see the CFPM's website at cfpm.org, especially
the discussion papers. Past PhD students have include: Luis Isquierdo,
Shah Jamal Alam, Olivier Barthelemy, Richard Taylor, and Oswaldo Terán.

If you are interested, in the first instance contact either Bruce
Edmonds (bruce@edmonds.name) or Scott Moss (scott@cfpm.org). We hope to
fill these positions by December 2008.
