Apply for funding to purchase strategic infrastructure including equipment, resources or both.

The funding seeks to improve UK scientific capability and enable cutting-edge research of high priority to Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC).

You must be based at a UK research organisation eligible for EPSRC funding.

This funding is for either:

  • purchase and set-up of infrastructure
  • resources to support existing infrastructure

The full economic cost (FEC) of your infrastructure must be at least £400,000.

The resources to support existing equipment applications must have a maximum duration of two years.

Before applying for funding, check the .

EPSRC standard eligibility rules apply. For full details, visit .

UK Research and Innovation (UKRI) has introduced new role types for funding opportunities being run on the new UKRI Funding Service.

For full details, visit .

A research technical professional can apply as a project lead or project co-lead, provided that:

  • your appointment is resourced from the central funds of their institution at the time of application
  • your level of responsibilities and duties is appropriate to a person with substantial research experience
  • your contract extends beyond the duration of the project

EPSRC expects institutions to take a strong strategic approach to prioritise the applications that are of the highest strategic importance to the institutions. The applications made should not be considered as ‘nice to have’ infrastructure, but rather a strategic necessity for the host institution’s long-term strategy.

EPSRC expects no more than six applications from each institution in the period between 18 June 2024 and 18 June 2025. Additional applications from the same institution will automatically be rejected. This institution limit applies to both the invited re-submissions and the resources to support existing strategic infrastructure route.

The institutional limit should not be seen as a target by institutions. EPSRC usually receive less than six applications from most institutions at each financial year. Applications should only be submitted when they have fully addressed the assessment criteria and reflected as an institutional priority.

International applicants

Under the a project co-lead (international) (previously co-investigator) can be based in a Norwegian institution.

Resubmissions

We will not accept uninvited resubmissions of projects that have been submitted to UKRI or any other funder.
