ESRC/NERC INTERDISCIPLINARY RESEARCH STUDENTSHIPS COMPETITION

The ESRC and the NERC wish to encourage postgraduate research on environmental issues 
which are of interest to both Councils and which require the combined approaches of 
both the environmental and social sciences. 

The ESRC and NERC will fund up to 20 joint interdisciplinary research studentships in 
this initial year of the scheme, starting in October 2000.  The subject matter of the 
studentships must address the interests of both the ESRC and the NERC and must be 
genuinely interdisciplinary in approach.  Applicants should ensure their proposal 
engages with the ESRC's Thematic priorities and with NERC's strategic priorities.

The terms and conditions of the studentships will be largely the same as for current 
research studentships.  Applicants must already hold a relevant Master's in either the 
environmental or the social sciences.  A prospective student must have two named 
supervisors, which we would normally involve one each in a social science and an 
environmental science department, although there may be instances where both are in 
the same department.  The department which will administer the studentship must either 
have ESRC recognition or must satisfy NERC's funding criteria. 

Applications should be submitted by 1 May 2000 to the ESRC, who will be administering 
the competition: it is essential that all documentation is returned to the ESRC and 
not to NERC.  The form and full guidance notes will not be circulated in paper form 
and must be downloaded from the ESRC website: http://www.esrc.ac.uk/ptd/INTER/INFO.htm
