Knowledge Transfer Secondments - University of Birmingham

这项知识转移借调（KTS）赠款将提供资金，以帮助确保伯明翰大学EPSRC资助的研究得到充分利用。epsrc资助的工程与物理科学学院和生命与环境科学学院的研究包括先进制造和材料、可持续城市重建、碳减排和氢经济、核能、生物纳米材料、铁路研究和国土安全等领域。KTS将以“知识转移的最佳方式是人的转移”为经营原则。基于EPSRC之前提供的研究助理产业借调（RAIS）计划，该计划将允许技术人员进出伯明翰大学。KTS的资金将用于支持以前获得EPSRC资助的员工借调，使他们能够进一步将他们的成果用于用户的应用。KTS基金亦可用于向内借调，以支援由使用者机构雇用的人员在大学进行的特定研究项目。在所有情况下，借调活动与一个或多个epsrc资助的研究项目之间将有密切的联系。

This Knowledge Transfer Secondments (KTS) grant will provide funding to help ensure the exploitation of the research funded by EPSRC at the University of Birmingham. EPSRC-funded research in the College of Engineering and Physical Sciences and the College of Life and Environmental Sciences includes areas as diverse as advanced manufacturing and materials, sustainable urban redevelopment, carbon reduction and the hydrogen economy, nuclear energy, bionanomaterials, rail research and homeland security. The KTS will operate on the principle that the best way to transfer knowledge is to transfer people. Based on the Research Assistants Industrial Secondments (RAIS) scheme previously available from EPSRC, it will allow movement of skilled people both into and out of the University of Birmingham.KTS funding will be used to support secondments of staff previously employed on an EPSRC grant or grants, to enable them to take their results further on towards application by users. KTS funds may also be used for inward secondments, supporting a specific research project carried out in the University by someone employed by a user organisation. In all cases there will be a strong connection between the secondment activities and one or more EPSRC-funded research projects.
