International Funding ENGINEERING AND PHYSICAL SCIENCES RESEARCH COUNCIL Dr Edward Clarke Senior Manager

The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council We are the main UK government agency for funding research and training in engineering and the physical sciences We invest around £ 800 million a year so the UK will be prepared for the next generation of technological change

WHY INTERNATIONAL? “International collaboration is important if the UK is to stay at the leading edge of world science and innovation and benefit from the 90 per cent of the world’s scientific output that is produced elsewhere.” The Race to the Top Lord Sainsbury, October 2007

EPSRC Overarching Vision “Our vision is for the UK to be the best place in the world in which to engage in research and innovation.” “For the UK to be equally renowned for knowledge transfer and innovation as it is for research discovery.” …while maintaining research excellence and quality

FUNDING OPTIONS Overseas travel grants Responsive Mode (including first grants) Travel costs etc associated with collaboration as part of a larger research grant Visiting researchers Bilateral workshops and N + N meetings Networks Specific calls for proposals:

INTERNATIONAL FUNDING What we DO fund: UK-resident academic employees of eligible institutions (mostly UK Higher Education Institutions) Travel and subsistence costs for UK partners at all stages in international research collaborations. International networking activities (UK T&S and UK core meeting costs) What we DON’T fund: Your collaborator overseas’ research or any investigators working in Universities outside the UK.

WRITING YOUR PROPOSAL Would your proposal stand up on its own without the collaboration? How will the collaboration work? Management of the link, use of travel funds… Added value of collaborating: what makes your chosen partner so special? What will they add to the research? Detailed letters of support from your collaborators Memoranda of Understanding (if held) Track record of any previous collaboration

DOUBLE JEOPARDY Agreements with agencies in USA, Japan, China and India. Memoranda of Understanding or ERA/ESF activities. Specific calls for proposals. Double jeopardy occurs where a joint research project is seeking funding from 2 agencies. Issues occur where the peer review is independent and out of sync. What are we doing?

Collaborations with Japan EPSRC currently fund grants worth a value of approximately £28 million that have a named Japanese collaborator. Examples of research themes include: ICT Photonics Electronics Energy Nanotechnology
