RCUK funds young people in research
RCUK has announced the successful projects to be funded through its new national School-University Partnerships Initiative (SUPI)
Research Councils UK (RCUK) has today (31 January 2013) announced the successful projects to be funded through its new national School-University Partnerships Initiative (SUPI), which exceeds £3.5 million including matched funding from universities, schools and businesses.
Through 12 projects, the three-year initiative aims to motivate young people from a diversity of backgrounds to be excited about cutting edge research and raise their aspirations for further study and future lives. Early career researchers will have opportunities to develop their transferable skills through training and by working with school students. The initiative also aims to engage teachers in ways that have maximum impact on teaching quality and learning.
