Student Projects / Supervision | Oxford Witt Lab
We offer regular, close supervision on ambitious projects at the frontier of AI capability, safety, and security for senior undergraduates, masters’ students, and DPhil/PhD students. Our work combines rigorous foundations with high-impact applications, and students are encouraged to engage directly with open research questions that shape the future of autonomous systems. Student research with OWL has led to multiple publications and prizes - including a Best MSc Thesis Award (Tony Hoare Prize), multiple top-tier AI conference publications, and a workshop Best Paper Award - and we regularly submit to and publish at leading venues in machine learning, AI safety, and multi-agent systems. Projects are designed to be innovative, technically deep, and publication-oriented - ideal for students aiming to contribute original research at the highest level. Please find example project directions below.
