Swindon, Swindon, United Kingdom NERC - the Natural Environment Research Council Full time
Opportunity Overview

The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) is offering funding for ambitious, high-risk, and high-reward curiosity-driven projects in environmental research. This opportunity is open to research groups and individuals based at UK research organisations eligible for NERC funding.

Eligibility

To be eligible, your research project must address a significant environmental science question. We welcome applications from individuals who can demonstrate a capability to collaborate with experts from other disciplines to generate innovative research. We encourage multidisciplinary research and collaborations with other UK organisations.

Application Guidelines

Before applying, check if your proposed research falls within the remit of NERC. You may be involved in no more than two applications submitted to this funding opportunity. Only one of these can be as a project lead. Project partners fund their own involvement, and we will only fund minor incidental expenses, such as some travel costs, if needed for project partners.

International Applicants

We do not fund overseas organisations, except for specific costs for project co-leads from Norway and the International Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA). You should include all other international collaborators (or UK partners not based at approved organisations) as project partners.

Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion

We are committed to achieving equality of opportunity for all funding applicants. We encourage applications from a diverse range of researchers and support people to work in a way that suits their personal circumstances.
