Background
----------

The Department is young but is successful in attracting research funding, is
small but big enough to support a significant range of research interests,
and has a friendly, informal atmosphere. Computing equipment available
includes networks of Sun workstations, Apple Macintoshs, PCs and transputers.

Buckingham is a small town about 20 miles north of Oxford and about 15 miles
west of Milton Keynes. It offers a relaxed environment with the choice of
living in the town or one of the nearby rural villages. London may be reached
in less than an hour by train from either Oxford or Milton Keynes.
