Research students are the backbone of UCL's research community, and an investment into the future research leaders in both academia and industry, with over 50% of UCL's current student population studying at postgraduate level. Within the Faculties of Engineering, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, and the Bartlett Faculty of the Built Environment there were 1,980 students in the 2016/17 academic year studying on research degrees. Our doctoral community is strengthened through the 17 EPSRC-funded Centres for Doctoral Training that UCL hosts, or is in partnership with, which complements our Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) allocation. Our overarching strategy for our DTP is to fairly, and transparently recruit the best candidates, to provide them with world class supervision, support, and training opportunities, to support their career development, opportunities to generate impact from their work, and create a challenging and stimulating environment which fully exposes them to the world of research and collaboration opportunities. The range and diversity of subject areas addressed by our DTP provision is unique in spanning from the conceptual theories of mathematics, physics and astronomy, to complex strands of mechanical, digital and environmental engineering, to the analysis and design of the actual built environment that surrounds us. The spectrum covered by, and the interconnections between, these subject areas help to produce doctoral research that is of demonstrable social and economic benefit not only to Britain, but also globally. We use our DTP flexibly to support: a) 4 year, fully-funded studentships to offer outstanding candidates comprehensive training and research opportunities b) Collaboration with industry through the DTP CASE Conversion studentships c) 2 year postdoctoral fellowships, through the Doctoral Prize to enable excellent graduates to develop their own independence d) Talented and promising undergraduate students to undertake summer research projects through the Vacation Bursaries scheme e) The retention of excellent international students under the International Doctoral Scholar flexibility quota Through the DTP we aim to offer 60-80 studentships per year, along with 9-10 Doctoral Prize Fellowships and up to 40 Vacation Bursaries. We allocate over 10% of awards as Case Conversion to reflect our commitment to collaboration and our close relationship with industry. In line with the 10% quota we offer c.16 International Doctoral Scholar awards annually. DTP awards are distributed across the breadth of the STEM subject areas and are advertised each year by departments, with various deadlines which span the academic year. All our doctoral students are members of the UCL Doctoral School, which provides high quality training and resources. The Doctoral Skills programme provides the students with a comprehensive range of transferable skills training, including research ethics, public engagement, outreach, and impact, in addition to opportunities to attend masters level modules, CPD training and external courses. Our focus on interdisciplinary research enables studentships to be shared between departments or faculties and contributes to the forging of strong collaborative relationships both internally and externally. Our Research portfolio is broadly shaped around the UCL Grand Challenges, the Government's Eight Great Technologies, and the priorities of the Research Councils. The Institutional level Doctoral Training Strategy Committee has overall responsibility for all the doctoral training undertaken as UCL. The DTP is overseen by the Doctoral Training Governance Board, with the Doctoral Training Manager having day-to-day oversight. Faculties and Departments allocate awards in line with their strategic priorities and areas for growth. This process is both bottom-up and top-down which ensures comprehensive coverage and flexibility.

研究生是UCL研究社区的骨干，也是对学术界和工业界未来研究领导者的投资，UCL目前超过50%的学生在研究生阶段学习。在工程学院，数学和物理科学学院以及巴特利特建筑环境学院内，2016/17学年有1，980名学生攻读研究学位。我们的博士社区通过17个EPSRC资助的博士培训中心得到加强，这些中心是UCL主办的，或与之合作，这补充了我们的博士培训合作伙伴关系（DTP）分配。我们的DTP的总体战略是公平，透明地招募最好的候选人，为他们提供世界一流的监督，支持和培训机会，支持他们的职业发展，从他们的工作中产生影响的机会，并创造一个具有挑战性和刺激性的环境，使他们充分接触研究和合作机会的世界。我们的DTP条款所涉及的学科领域的范围和多样性是独一无二的，从数学、物理和天文学的概念理论，到复杂的机械、数字和环境工程，再到对我们周围实际建筑环境的分析和设计。这些学科领域所涵盖的范围和相互联系有助于产生博士研究，不仅对英国，而且对全球都具有明显的社会和经济效益。我们灵活地使用DTP来支持：a）4年全额资助的学生奖学金，为优秀的候选人提供全面的培训和研究机会B）通过DTP CASE转换学生奖学金与行业合作c）2年博士后奖学金，通过博士奖，使优秀的毕业生能够发展自己的独立性d）通过假期奖学金计划，让有才华和有前途的本科生进行暑期研究项目e）根据国际博士生灵活配额保留优秀的国际学生通过DTP，我们的目标是每年提供60-80个学生名额，沿着9-10个博士奖学金和多达40个假期奖学金。我们将超过10%的奖项分配给案例转化，以反映我们对合作的承诺以及我们与行业的密切关系。根据10%的配额，我们每年提供c.16国际博士生奖学金。DTP奖项分布在STEM学科领域的各个领域，每年由各部门发布广告，并有跨越学年的各种截止日期。我们所有的博士生都是伦敦大学学院博士学院的成员，该学院提供高质量的培训和资源。博士技能课程为学生提供全面的可转移技能培训，包括研究道德，公众参与，外联和影响，以及参加硕士课程，CPD培训和外部课程的机会。我们专注于跨学科研究，使学生奖学金能够在部门或院系之间共享，并有助于内部和外部建立强大的合作关系。我们的研究组合是围绕UCL大挑战，政府的八大技术，以及研究委员会的优先事项广泛成形。机构一级博士培训战略委员会全面负责所有作为UCL进行的博士培训。DTP由博士培训管理委员会监督，博士培训经理负责日常监督。各学院及部门会根据本身的策略性优先次序及发展范畴分配奖项。这个过程是自下而上和自上而下的，确保了全面的覆盖面和灵活性。
