DTP Briefing
• Background• Who are out partners? What are our themes
and what facilities and resources are available?
• Submitting PhD proposals – joint supervision; CASE partners and Integrated Student Networks (ISNs)
• How will proposals be evaluated and students selected?

NERC Training Review
A: NERC should take a more strategic and hands-on approach to its training investment.B: NERC should move to a 4 year notional studentship in 2014C: NERC should introduce success criteria against which training can be judged. D: NERC should introduce a ‘Dual-Core Model’ for studentships, which specifically delineates between responsive and focused studentships. E: NERC should allocate responsive studentships through Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTPs); and focused studentships through competitions when there is a recognised need.Meeting Societies Needs: Economic Growth & Science Discovery

Operating Principles:1. Support scientifically excellent projects aligned to
research strengths2. All DTP students will be supervised jointly between
two (or more) ROs as appropriate to maximise the benefit of the DTP for our students
3. Provide a world-leading research training environment for students
4. Provide reciprocal rights of access to technologies, facilities, equipment and expertise

• CASE studentships – at least 30% of awards need to go to CASE
studentships
• Projects – well-defined and deliverable proposals– methodology outlined, with RTSG needs detailed
• Supervisory fit – Inter-institutional supervisory teams– Demonstrate expertise and experience
• Research & training environment– Detail anticipated training needs– Highlight facilities equipment
Studentship Projects
Integrated Studentship
Networks
Innovation to support
interdisciplinarity
Networks of interrelated
projects which will be supported
to work collaboratively.

Integrated Student Networks
• Multidisciplinary in an embedded environment
• Multidisciplinary training• Building a network, use NERC Centres, RO’s
have Institutes e.g. IHRR, CeREES, DEI at DU), and others in partnership: SAGES, CRESS (SU), NIReS (NU), CESER (NU), CELO (StA)
• ISNs will only proceed if students of sufficient quality emerge
