DTP 2018-19 Newcastle University

建立一个具有弹性和全球竞争力的工业战略，要求英国在激励下一代工程和物理科学领域的研究生领导者方面保持敏捷和响应。纽卡斯尔大学（NU）于2017年对其科学、农业和工程学院（SAgE）进行了改革，通过雄心勃勃的重大重组打破了传统的学科界限。我们改变了学院的内部管理制度，将10个学院减少到4个（工程学院http://www.ncl.ac.uk/engineering）；计算(http://www.ncl.ac.uk/computing);数理统计（http://www.ncl.ac.uk/maths-physics/）；自然与环境科学（http://www.ncl.ac.uk/nes/）。这是我们第一次在一个学院拥有所有的工程子学科，并将我们的自然科学和环境科学结合起来，在地球科学、化学、海洋科学和物理海洋学的研究和教学中发挥最大的协同作用。在学校内部，我们将研究与多学科专业领域结合起来，使跨学科研究蓬勃发展。研究小组是我们的基本组成部分，为学者、研究助理和研究生提供领导、指导和合作。DTP培训计划最重要的成果是，我们使学生充分认识到他们的就业潜力，并为解决我们社会在地方、国家和国际上面临的一些最紧迫的问题做出贡献。我们在伦敦、马来西亚、纽卡斯尔和新加坡设有校区，为学生提供了充分利用地方、国家、区域和国际层面的行业和政府合作的机会。向DTP学生开放的新研究领域有：生物制造；数字时代的未来智能交通；地理空间系统科学。其他研究领域包括：数字基础设施与技术；能源系统科学与工程；医疗保健技术和生物工程；和;城市韧性科学与智慧城市。DTP资助对持有或期望获得相关学科良好（2:1最低或同等）学士学位的合格导师和博士候选人开放。学术优秀但通常不符合条件的申请人获得国际博士学者资助的机会有限（https://www.epsrc.ac.uk/skills/students/help/flexibility/）。所有申请应在2018年2月之前通过纽卡斯尔大学的在线招生门户网站http://www.ncl.ac.uk/postgraduate/提交，10月份入学。拨款决定通常在3月份做出。ddp资助的博士生由至少两名研究活跃人员组成的监督团队指导，并从广泛的培训机会中受益，这些培训机会可以根据他们的具体需求量身定制。专业研究技术的培训在研究小组内进行，并辅以一套全面的个人和专业技能发展机会，这些机会涵盖了Vitae研究员发展框架（RDF）的知识和智力能力、个人效率、研究治理和组织、参与、影响和影响等领域。(http://www.ncl.ac.uk/sage/learningandteaching/postgraduateresearch/postgraduateresearcherdevelopment项目/ #介绍)。我们特别致力于培养具有创业精神的博士生研究人员，如果相关的话；了解“你的研究有什么好处”，并具备识别产出如何影响社会、商业化或产生新想法的机会的能力。为所有EPSRC资助的研究人员设计了一个新的基于挑战的企业住宅，为成功的参与者提供就业机会，以补充我们现有的企业培训活动。

Building a resilient and globally competitive Industrial Strategy demands the UK to be agile and responsive to inspiring the next generation of graduate leaders in engineering and physical sciences. Newcastle University (NU) transformed its Faculty of Science, Agriculture and Engineering (SAgE) in 2017 to break down traditional disciplinary boundaries through an ambitious major restructure. We have changed the internal governance systems of the Faculty and reduced ten schools to four - Engineering http://www.ncl.ac.uk/engineering); Computing (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/computing); Mathematics, Statistics & Physics (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/maths-physics/); Natural and Environmental Science (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/nes/). For the first time we have all engineering sub-disciplines in one school, and have aligned our natural and environmental sciences to make the most of synergies in research and teaching within geosciences, chemistry, marine science and physical oceanography. Within the schools we have aligned our research to multi-disciplinary areas of expertise allowing interdisciplinary research to flourish. Research groups are our fundamental building block and provide leadership, mentorship and collegiality across academics, research associates and graduate students. The most important outcome of the DTP training programme is that we equip students to realise their full employability potential and contribute towards addressing some of the most pressing issues facing our society locally, nationally and internationally. With campuses in London, Malaysia, Newcastle and Singapore we are well placed to offer students opportunities to take advantage of collaborations from industry and government at local, national, regional and international levels. New areas of research strength open to DTP studentships are: Biofabrication; Future Smart Mobility in a Digital Age, and; Geospatial Systems Science. Other research areas include: Digital Infrastructure and Technology; Energy Systems Science and Engineering; Healthcare Technologies and Bioengineering; and; Urban Resilience Science and Smart Cities. DTP funding is open to eligible supervisors and doctoral candidate applicants holding, or expecting to receive, a good (2:1 minimum or equivalent) bachelor's degree in a relevant subject. Limited opportunities are available for academically excellent but normally non-eligible applicants to be funded as International Doctoral Scholars (https://www.epsrc.ac.uk/skills/students/help/flexibility/). All applications should be submitted via Newcastle University's on-line admissions portal at: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/postgraduate/ by February 2018 for October entry. Funding decisions are normally made in March. DTP-funded PhD students are guided by supervisory teams consisting of at least two research-active staff and benefit from a broad range of training opportunities that can be tailored to their specific needs. Training in specialist research techniques is delivered within the research group and is complemented by a comprehensive suite of personal and professional skills development opportunities which span the Vitae Researcher Development Framework (RDF) domains of knowledge and intellectual abilities, personal effectiveness, research governance and organisation, and engagement, influence and impact. (http://www.ncl.ac.uk/sage/learningandteaching/postgraduateresearch/postgraduateresearcherdevelopment programme/#introduction). We are particularly committed to the development of entrepreneurial doctoral student researchers, where relevant; with an understanding of 'what your research is good for', and equipped to identify the opportunities for how outputs can impact upon society and be commercialised or lead to new ideas. A new challenge-based enterprise residential which offers placement opportunities for successful participants has been designed for all EPSRC funded researchers to complement our existing enterprise training activities.
