Welcome to YCCSA
We are a community of researchers drawn from different departments developing novel mathematical, computational and analytical methods and tools for the analysis and modelling of complex systems.
As part of YCCSA you will find researchers from the departments of:
A large proportion of us reside under one roof, working on projects that cross the boundaries of traditional disciplines, while others live in their respective departments but are still very much part of YCCSA.
YCCSA is involved in the delivery of postgraduate training through our partner departments. We are particularly interested in the nature of interdisciplinary research, as our research draws upon resesearchers and graduate students from across all our partner departments, each bringing different perspectives to the challenges of analysing and modelling complex systems.
