DTP 2020-2021 University of Bristol

布里斯托大学将与工程和物理科学研究委员会（EPSRC）密切合作，为博士生和早期职业研究人员提供广泛的研究机会。DTP资助将使布里斯托大学能够吸引下一代高才华的博士生和世界级的早期职业研究人员，与我们的行业合作伙伴和利益相关者密切合作，制定最广泛的价值和影响的令人兴奋的研究项目。布里斯托大学的研究完全符合EPSRC的优先事项，战略计划（2015年）和交付计划（2019年）。战略研究领域的例子包括量子工程、机器人和人工智能、数字创意、数字健康、未来通信和网络、网络安全、统计和数学，以及包括复合材料在内的所有学科的材料研究。DTP奖将由EPSRC DTP管理小组管理，以确保响应机制，针对与资助者优先事项和我们自己在科学和工程方面的战略抱负相一致的特定机会。我们将使用战略核心拨款（DTP奖金的80%）来支持我们的战略研究领域，例如合成生物学、量子信息、数字环境、数学生物学、触觉传感器、计算神经科学和机器学习。考虑到学生的素质、支持新教师和早期学术人员的研究，以及支持成功的epsrc资助的研究补助金，DTP奖助金的这一部分将有策略地分配给学校。我们致力于最大限度地提高该奖项的性价比，并将扩大我们在博士研究和培训方面的合作，以发挥EPSRC资金的杠杆作用。我们将分配10%的DTP奖励给与行业合作伙伴，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全球挑战研究基金的响应。我们将继续使用博士奖奖学金来支持个人早期职业研究人员，在他们完成epsrc资助的博士学位后，他们的博士研究有重大发展和演变的案例。这将为有才华的个人在学术生涯的开始提供一个启动平台，使大学能够确定新的战略领域，并通过为发展领导者提供机会来激励DTP博士生的队列。我们的学术人员将通过其学院网站上的通知获得DTP资金：http://www.bristol.ac.uk/faculties/。感兴趣的博士候选人将能够在相关学院层面看到机会，也可以通过博士招生门户网站http://www.bristol.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/，布里斯托尔博士学院http://www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/prospective-research-students/和外部网站（例如findaphd.com https://www.findaphd.com/phds/bristol/?M0w9M-00&Keywords=epsrc）集中看到机会。DTP学生候选人将使用我们的在线申请系统www.bristol.ac.uk/pg-howtoapply/We提交博士申请。我们致力于为我们的EPSRC DTP学生创造和维持一个良好的研究和发展环境。我们高度重视DTP学生的发展和他们的研究，磨练他们的专业和研究技能，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/）将与主管、专业服务单位和院系合作，为所有研究生提供全面的培训、发展和福利活动（www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/current-research-students/ppd/）。

The University of Bristol will work closely 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 DTP funding will enable the University to attract the next generation of highly talented PhD students and world-class Early Career Researchers, working closely with our industry partners and stakeholders to craft exciting research projects of the widest possible value and impact The University of Bristol research is fully aligned with EPSRC priorities, the Strategic Plan (2015) and the Delivery Plan (2019). Examples of strategic research areas include Quantum Engineering, Robotics and Artificial Intelligence, Digital Creativity, Digital Health, Future Communications and Networks, Cyber Security, Statistics and Mathematics, and Materials Research across all disciplines, including Composites.The DTP award will be managed by the EPSRC DTP Management Group to ensure responsive mechanisms, targeting specific opportunities aligned with both funders' priorities and our own strategic ambitions in Science and Engineering. We will employ a Strategic Core Allocation (80% of the DTP award) to support our strategic research areas, for example in Synthetic Biology, Quantum Information, Digital Environment, Mathematical Biology, Tactile Sensors, Computational Neuroscience and Machine Learning. This portion of the DTP award will be allocated strategically to Schools, considering the quality of the student, supporting the research of new and early career academic staff, and supporting successful EPSRC-funded research grants. We are committed to maximise the value-for-money of the award and will expand our collaborations in doctoral research and training to deliver leverage of EPSRC funding. We will allocate 10% of the DTP award to collaborations with Industry partners, partner Universities and other PhD stakeholders. It will also strengthen our responsiveness to the Industrial Strategy and the Global Challenge Research Fund. We will continue to use the Doctoral Prize Fellowship to support individual Early Career Researchers, directly after completion of their EPSRC-funded PhD, where there is a case for significant development and evolution of their PhD research. This will provide a launchpad for talented individuals at the start of their academic careers, enable the University to identify new strategic areas, and inspire the cohort of DTP PhD students by providing opportunities for developing leaders. Our academic staff will access the DTP funding through notices on their Faculty websites: http://www.bristol.ac.uk/faculties/. Interested PhD candidates will be able to see opportunities at a relevant School level, but also centrally via the PhD admissions portal http://www.bristol.ac.uk/study/postgraduate/, via the Bristol Doctoral College http://www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/prospective-research-students/, and on external sites (e.g. findaphd.com https://www.findaphd.com/phds/bristol/?M0w9M-00&Keywords=epsrc). DTP studentship candidates will submit a PhD application using our online application system www.bristol.ac.uk/pg-howtoapply/We are committed to creating and sustaining an excellent research and development environment for our EPSRC DTP students. We attribute the highest level of importance to the development of both the DTP students and their research, honing their professional and research skills 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 Supervisors, Professional Service units, and the Faculties to deliver a comprehensive offering of training, development and wellbeing activities for all research students (www.bristol.ac.uk/doctoral-college/current-research-students/ppd/).
