CASE studentships
‘Collaborative Awards in Science and Engineering’ allow students to receive high quality research training in collaboration with an industrial partner.
They are 4-year doctoral training grants for top quality bioscience graduates to undertake research (leading to a PhD) on a subject selected and supervised jointly by academic and industrial partners.
We fund CASE studentships through:
- Our Quota competition
- Allocations to our major industrial partners (Industrial CASE partnerships)
- An annual competition open to smaller biotech companies and academic supervisors (Industrial CASE). See related links for details of any current call
