Description
If you have had little/no experience of applying for funding, navigating
the funding landscape can seem incredibly daunting, especially at a time
when the UK Research Councils are undergoing an extensive period of
change in terms of the levels, types and areas of funding available.
This short session will:
- provide an overview of how research funding in the UK works: where
does the money come from and how can you access it?
- introduce the main funding bodies for your research area and types of
funding available at different stages of your career
- guidance and suggestions as to how you can find out about the latest
funding opportunities in your discipline
- an overview of the University's support in this area
- include time to discuss any questions that you may have.
