EPSRC are looking for new members for our Early Career Forum in Engineering

EPSRC is seeking applications from Early Career industrialists, academics and from individuals working in the third sector and government organisations to join our Early Career Forum in the Engineering theme.

Future Manufacturing Systems

The Manufacturing the Future theme will provide up to £12 million over two funding streams, to support a portfolio of manufacturing-relevant projects from emerging research areas, enabling new, potentially disruptive future manufacturing systems.

Decarbonising Heating and Cooling

This call is to fund proposals to support the goal of the decarbonisation of heating and/or cooling. Proposals must be at least 50% within the remit of EPSRC.

Proposals can be for a research grant or for a Network Plus grant.

It is expected that the funding available for this call is approximately £8 million.  We anticipate that proposals may vary considerably in scale and scope depending on the planned approach.  Proposals should be for a maximum of £2 million and for a minimum of £500k.  Proposals should be for 36 to 48 months duration.

Researchers given membership of Women's Engineering Society to celebrate centenary

EPSRC researchers are given a 12-month membership of the Women’s Engineering Society to mark the organisation’s centenary.

People at the Heart of Software Engineering - Invitation for Proposals

The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) has up to £4 million available to fund between four to six programmes of research which will support novel proposals that put People at the Heart of Software Engineering research.

This call will support researchers who can advocate for the importance of Software Engineering and highlight the huge impact it has on our everyday lives. We want to encourage research into responsible software engineering that considers all stakeholders from the start of the research programme. This includes considering the needs of the users and developers of software as well as considering the potential impact software could have on people. This is in line with the People at the heart of ICT priority, one of the six cross-ICT priorities.
