Schemes for Engineers in Research and Development
RAEng Research Fellowships
The Stage Two Sift Panel will be
held on Monday 21 May and up to 20 candidates will
be selected for interview.
The interviews will be held on
Thursday 31 May and Friday 1 June. Candidates should
ensure that they are available on these dates in
case they are invited for interview.
The RAEng Research Fellowships are designed to
promote excellence in engineering. They provide
support for high-quality engineers and encourage
them to develop successful academic research
careers.
Applications are welcomed from
outstanding researchers from all branches of
engineering who are about to finish their PhD or
have up to three years Post-Doctoral research
experience. The scheme provides funding for five
years to encourage the best researchers to remain in
the academic engineering sector. In addition to the
direct financial support, the scheme offers:
-
freedom to concentrate on
basic research in any field of engineering
-
time to establish a track
record in the field
-
the services of a mentor
(a Fellow of The Academy) to offer advice and to
facilitate industrial links as the research
progresses
-
restrictions of your
teaching and administrative duties
For further information,
please refer to our guidance notes:
If you work in a 'Research Grants Office' or
equivalent, and so aid your colleagues in applying
to such schemes, please email research info
to be added to a mailing list so we can update you
directly when core rules change and new Calls for
applications are announced.
