The programme allows academic and non-academic partners and so is useful for building partnerships and raising the profile of a particular research area whilst supporting the development of the next generation of researchers. There are three types of ITN: 1.

\nIt is expected that this announcement of opportunity will lead to the funding of two joint UKUS projects, one for each of the programme\u2019s two research challenges. The NERC funding for the UK component of proposals for Challenge 1 will be a maximum of \u00a31.6m (80% FEC) and for Challenge 2 will be a maximum of \u00a30.8m (80%FEC). The US component of proposals will be funded under the Lead Agency Agreement and costs will be limited to $500,000 per project.
\nProposals for this call are invited from eligible UK researchers (see NERC Grants Handbook for standard eligibility criteria). National Science Foundation (NSF) eligibility criteria apply for US researchers (see NSF\u2019s Proposal and Award Policies and Procedures Guide, PAPPG Chapter I E).
\nNERC is acting as the Lead Agency for this call. Each project proposal must include at least one UK applicant and one US applicant. One integrated project proposal should be submitted to NERC, detailing both the UK and US contributions to the research project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
