Events in Physics
This scheme aims to strengthen the links between industry and academia by supporting exceptional academics in UK universities to undertake use-inspired research that meets the needs of the industrial partners.
Awardees are expected to:
- Establish or enhance a world leading engineering research group
- Deliver 'use-inspired' research that meets the needs of their industrial partners
- Publish the results of their research in high quality peer review journals
- Become a self-sustaining research group by the end of the award (by securing substantial external grant income: RCUK, EU, industry, charities, etc.)
The Academy is committed to diversity and welcomes applications from women and other groups who are currently underrepresented across engineering.
