About

Professor Enrico Gerding is head of the Agents, Interaction and Complexity (AIC) research group in the Department of Electronics and Computer Science (ECS) at the University of Southampton. He has been an academic at Southampton since 2007. He received his PhD from the Dutch National Center of Mathematics and Computer Science (CWI) in 2004. His research focuses on artificial intelligence, specifically autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. He has more than 130 peer-reviewed publications in high quality conferences, journals and books in this area. Please see the research tab below for details. Enrico has supervised 27 PhD students to completion. He is the director of UKRI AI Centre for Doctoral Training in AI for Sustainability which trains 70 PhD students in the application of AI to improve the environment. Since 2020 he is a board member of the International Foundation for Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (IFAAMAS) which organises the annual Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS) conference. He is also local organiser of AAMAS 2021 and AAMAS2023. He teaches the MSc modules Intelligent Agents and Computational Finance. Currently he is a co-I on several funded projects, including the EPSRC-funded AutoTrust platform grant, the Shell-funded Centre for Maritime Futures.

PhD Studentships. I'm interested in supervising motivated students in the area of AI and multi-agent systems. Please get in touch to discuss the options and potential topics. Check out the UKRI AI Centre for Doctoral Training in AI for Sustainability which has opportunities for 70 PhD students in the area of AI and environmental sustainability.
