Details

The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) invests in studentships delivered through the cohort training model in the form of Doctoral Training Partnerships (DTPs) and Centres for Doctoral Training. As the end of the first DTP awards approaches and with four DTP2 cohorts now recruited, we have reviewed the cohort training offer.

The Cohort Training Review will be used to inform NERC’s strategy for future commissioning of studentships. It will also inform the transition towards collective working across UK Research and Innovation and the new deal for postgraduate research.
