Student Testimonials

Francesca Zaffora Blando, an MSc student from Italy, notes: 'You will (...) have countless opportunities to step out of your comfort zone: philosophy students may for instance discover a passion for the incomputable, and mathematics majors an interest in belief dynamics or neural computation.'
