The Centre for Security, Communications and Network Research (CSCAN) is an established research group, comprising staff from the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics at the University of Plymouth.
Since 1984 the centre has operated under a number of names as the scope of our research has extended (see history below). We currently have 15 full time academic staff linked to the research centre with supervision responsibility for over 60 postgraduate research students based in Plymouth and overseas (including our CSCAN Network nodes).
CSCAN has a proven research pedigree, including both collaborative work with industry and participation in European research initiatives. The work has led to many successful postgraduate projects, as well as numerous publications. In addition to an active base of postgraduate and postdoctoral research, our research also underpins a number of MSc and MRes programmes. We are also able to offer tailored short courses and other Continuing Professional Development support (please contact us (info@cscan.org) for further details).
