BBSRC DTP

Standard DTP Studentship

 

Standard BBSRC DTP students complete two rotations in different departments and a 3 month professional internship in an organisation of their choice as part of their PhD. Initially, students apply to a theme, not a specific project.

Targeted DTP Studentship

Targeted BBSRC DTP students complete two rotations in different departments and a 3 month professional internship in an organisation of their choice as part of their PhD. Students apply for a specific research project - the rotations will feed into this.

iCASE Studentship

 

iCASE BBSRC DTP Students apply for a known research project, this project will contain a minimum of a 3 month internship/collaboration with an industrial partner connected to the PhD.
