Call summary

The STFC Industrial CASE studentship competition provides support for PhD students to work in collaboration with a non-academic partner on projects that fall within the STFC core remits in astronomy, particle physics, nuclear physics and accelerator science, or on projects that aim to apply technologies or techniques developed within the programme into other areas. The projects must fall within our core science programme in astronomy, solar and planetary science, particle physics, particle astrophysics and cosmology, nuclear physics and accelerator science or must aim to apply technologies or techniques developed within the programme into other areas. The primary aim of Industrial CASE is to provide the student with training that is high quality, that involves experience outside a purely academic environment and that seeks to further our core science programme or to apply the knowledge and capability developed within the programme to areas where it will have a societal or economic impact.
