The Lancaster Centre for Doctoral Training in Statistics and Operational Research (STOR) will meet the current critical need to address the national skills shortage within both disciplines. These complementary areas of mathematics underpin a wide-range of industries including defence, healthcare, finance, energy and transport. Thus, the development of this integrated, industrially-focused doctoral training centre is key for national competitiveness. Combined with the input of our industrial partners, the formation of the centre will provide a research training environment focused on methodological research motivated and applied to important real scientific/industrial applications. The centre will be designed to attract, train and nurture the analytic research capacity of the UK's strongest numerate graduates, thus developing a generation of doctoral scientists capable of applying their research skills to industrial applications through either academic or industrial career paths. Key aims of centre are:(i) to increase national doctoral recruitment into STOR through a programme attractive to substantial numbers of students outside those who would normally consider doctoral study in the area; (ii) to train graduates capable of producing research of high quality and with major industrial and scientific impact;(iii) to produce highly employable graduates equipped with the broad skills needed for rapid career progression in academia or industry;(iv) to stimulate research at the interface of STOR through doctoral projects which span the disciplines. The long-term vision for this centre is that it will grow into a national centre of excellence for a collaborative doctoral training environment in STOR between academia and industry, leading to a sustainable model for better exploitation of research.

兰开斯特统计和运筹学博士培训中心(STOR)将满足目前解决这两个学科的国家技能短缺的迫切需要。这些互补的数学领域支撑着广泛的行业，包括国防、医疗、金融、能源和交通。因此，这一综合性的、以工业为重点的博士培训中心的发展是国家竞争力的关键。结合我们工业伙伴的投入，该中心的成立将提供一个研究培训环境，重点是激励和应用于重要的真正科学/工业应用的方法论研究。该中心旨在吸引、培训和培养英国数学能力最强的毕业生的分析研究能力，从而培养一代能够在学术或行业职业道路上将研究技能应用于工业应用的博士科学家。中心的主要目标是：(I)通过一项对通常考虑在该领域攻读博士学位的学生以外的大量学生具有吸引力的计划，增加STOR的全国博士生招聘；(Ii)培养能够从事高质量、对工业和科学有重大影响的研究的毕业生；(Iii)培养具备在学术界或行业快速发展职业生涯所需的广泛技能的高就业毕业生；(Iv)通过跨学科的博士项目，促进STOR界面上的研究。该中心的长期愿景是，它将发展成为一个国家示范中心，在学术界和产业界之间建立一个协作的博士培训环境，从而形成一个更好地利用研究的可持续模式。
