DTP 2018-19 Univeristy of Bristol

布里斯托大学很自豪能与工程和物理科学研究委员会（EPSRC）合作，为博士生和早期职业研究人员提供广泛的研究机会。EPSRC DTP资助使大学能够吸引下一代有才华的博士生和早期职业研究人员。布里斯托尔大学的研究与EPSRC的优先事项、工业战略挑战基金和其他关键举措保持一致。战略研究领域包括机器人与人工智能、数字创意、数字健康、未来通信与网络、网络安全、核与复合材料。我们致力于支持这些战略领域，以及其他大型拨款申请，并将dtp支持的研究与新老员工的支持结合起来。2018/19和2019/20年度的博士培训伙伴关系（DTP）奖将由EPSRC DTP管理小组负责管理，由战略管理小组负责政策和监督。它的设计是为了确保我们有一个反应灵敏的机制来针对特定的机会，以响应资助者的优先事项和我们自己在科学和工程方面的战略抱负。我们将继续使用战略核心拨款（DTP奖励的80%）来支持，例如，成功获得第一笔资助的新学术人员。根据学生的质素、支持新入职及早期工作人员的研究、支持成功获得epsrc资助的研究补助金，以及配合外部资金（例如工业界），拨款部分会在本地分配给各学院和学系。为了提高EPSRC投资的价值及其影响，我们承诺扩大我们在博士培训方面的合作，以刺激EPSRC资金的杠杆作用。我们计划在新的国际和工业杠杆配置中分配10%的DTP奖。我们将把DTP奖金的这一部分用于促进与行业合作伙伴、合作大学和其他博士利益相关者的合作。它还将加强我们对工业战略和国际全球挑战研究基金的响应。我们将继续使用博士奖学金的设施（DTP奖的10%）。这将用于支持个人早期职业研究人员，在完成epsrc资助的博士学位后，他们的博士研究有可能得到重大发展和演变。这种特殊的伙伴关系将为有才能的个人在学术生涯的开始提供一个启动平台，使大学能够开辟新的战略领域，并通过为发展领导者提供机会来激励DTP博士生的队列。我们致力于为我们的EPSRC DTP学生创造和维持一个良好的发展和学习环境。我们的博士课程质量保证和学生进度监测机制将用于支持持续发展的过程。我们高度重视研究生的研究和一般专业技能的发展，以提高他们作为研究人员的效率，并为他们未来的职业生涯奠定基础。布里斯托尔博士学院（www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/）将与学术主管、中央专业服务部门以及整个大学的院系和学院合作，为所有研究生提供全面的培训和发展活动（www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/current-research-students/ppd/）。培训将包括具体的模块，以帮助我们的学生有效地与所有利益相关者合作。

The DTP Strategy of the University of Bristol and fit with EPSRC Priorities The University of Bristol is proud to work in partnership with the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) to offer a wide range of research opportunities to Doctoral Research Students and Early Career Researchers. The EPSRC DTP funding enables the University to attract the next generation of talented PhD students and Early Career Researchers. The University of Bristol research is aligned with EPSRC priorities, the Industrial Strategy Challenge fund and other key initiatives. Examples of strategic research areas include Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, Digital Creativity, Digital Health, Future Communications and Networks, Cyber Security, Nuclear and Composite Materials. We are committed to support these strategic areas, as well as other large grant applications, and couple this DTP-supported research with the support of new and established staff. Management of the DTP The Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) award for 2018/19 and 2019/20 will be managed day-today by the EPSRC DTP Management Group, with policy and oversight by a Strategic Management Group. It is designed to ensure that we have a responsive and agile mechanism to target specific opportunities in response to both funders' priorities and our own strategic ambitions in Science and Engineering. We will continue to employ the Strategic Core Allocation (80% of the DTP award) to support, for example, new academic staff who are successful in their first grants. This portion of the DTP award will be allocated locally to Schools and Departments considering the quality of the student, supporting the research of new and early career staff, supporting successful EPSRC-funded research grants, and matching external funds, for example from industry. Responding to drivers to enhance the value of EPSRC investment and its impact, we are committing to expand our collaborations in doctoral training to stimulate leverage of EPSRC funding. We are planning to allocate 10% of the DTP award in a new International and Industrial Leverage Allocation. We will target this portion of the DTP award to stimulate collaboration with Industry partners, partner Universities and other PhD stakeholders. It will also strengthen our responsiveness to Industrial Strategy and international Global Challenge Research Fund. We will continue to use the facility of the Doctoral Prize Fellowship (10% of the DTP award). This will be used to support individual Early Career Researchers, directly after completion of their EPSRC-sponsored PhD, where there is potential for significant development and evolution of their PhD research. This specific partnership will provide a launchpad for talented individuals at the start of their academic careers, enable the University to open up new strategic areas, and inspire the cohort of DTP PhD students by providing opportunities for developing leaders. Training and Support of Students We are committed to creating and sustaining an excellent development and learning environment for our EPSRC DTP students. Our mechanisms for PhD programme quality assurance and monitoring of student progress will be used to support a process of continual development. We attribute the highest level of importance to the development of both the research and the generic professional skills of postgraduate students, to increase their effectiveness as researchers, and to underpin their future careers. The Bristol Doctoral College (www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/) will work with Academic Supervisors, central Professional Service divisions, and the Faculties and Schools across the University to deliver a comprehensive offering of training and development activities for all research students (www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/current-research-students/ppd/). The training will include specific modules to help our students to work effectively with all our stakeholders.
