UKRI have announced round 2 of the cross research council responsive mode pilot scheme, deadline for applications is 19th November. Due to the high demand from round 1, institutional caps have been introduced. BU can submit a maximum of 5 applications so we will be running an internal selection process. The expression of interest form should be submitted by Friday 27th September.
The award is between £200,000 and £1.2 million for 2 years. The scheme aims to fund projects that “support interdisciplinary ideas emerging from the research community outside current disciplinary boundaries” and it will not fund projects where there is a clear research council responsive mode scheme.
Please email kpercival@bournemouth.ac.uk if you wish to submit an EOI.
