STFC - Industrial CASE studentships
The Science and Technology Facilities Council invites applications for its industrial CASE studentships. These enable PhD students to work in collaboration with a non-academic partner on projects that fall within the STFC core science programme, or that aim to apply technologies or techniques developed within the programme into other areas.
Universities, research council institutes and independent research organisations may apply, and should act as the academic partner, but not as the non-academic partner. Non-university academic-related partners would need to host the studentship in conjunction with the university where the student is registered. Other UK-based organisations may act as non-academic partners.
Studentships are tenable for a minimum of three and a half years, during which the student should spend at least nine months at the non-academic body, which may be spread over 18 months.
The non-academic partner is required to make a financial contribution to both the student and the project. STFC provides the following funds:
•maintenance allowance for the student worth £15,296 per year outside London and £17,296 per year within London;
•additional award for the student worth £615 per year;
•payments to the research organisation, including up to £4,121 per year for tuition fees, £1,000 per year for research training costs, and £230 towards the costs of conference fees and UK fieldwork.
