Brief Biography

Professor Joe Carthy is College Principal and Dean of Science at UCD. He is Co-director of a research group of 18 postgraduate students and has graduated 7 PhD and 18 MSc students. He is the author/co-author of 70 scientific papers and a textbook on Computer Architecture. He is active in three research areas: Information Retrieval; Data Mining; and most
recently Cybercrime Investigation and Forensic Computing. He is Director of the Centre for Cybercrime Investigation in the School of Computer Science and Informatics and was been appointed the Programme Manager for the AGIS Cybercrime Training programme involving twenty EU police forces – this is the first time that a non-senior police officer has held such a role. He also participates in the Interpol and Eurpol fora for Cybercrime Investigation. He has supervised/co-supervised 25 postgraduates (7 PhD and 18 MSc by research) to completion. He has been awarded over €1.8 million in research funding over the past 8 years, (as PI, joint PI and collaborator). He is currently supervising 8 PhD students and 3 MSc students in Computer Security and Information Retrieval.
