IAA proposal University of Reading

为了在第二阶段加强NERC资助的研究和用户社区之间的互动，我们将继续采用第一阶段采用的双管齐下的方法；这已经使我们能够成功地增加我们与利益相关者的互动。我们将把我们从第一阶段学到的经验应用到第二阶段的项目中：1.我们将设立一个基金，现任和以前的NERC赠款获得者、研究人员和学生可以竞标这些项目，这些项目将加强与利益相关者的互动，通常是企业，以加速影响2。我们研究和企业部的业务关系专家将与成功的申请者密切合作，支持和促进项目交付预计项目将是多种多样的，但产出将始终如一地旨在：1.在第一阶段试点可能发展的关系的基础上，以及适当地刺激关系/产品开发2.为大学和目标利益攸关方之间的更多新对话创造机会，使相互探索与影响相关的活动成为可能。强调了国家环境政策研究中心资助的研究在经济和社会效益方面的潜力4.为案例研究提供证据将通过目前正在制定的新的战略环境方案汇集对跨项目活动的支持。我们对该计划的设想将把该大学在气候科学、地球观测和环境风险以及粮食安全方面由NERC资助的世界领先的专业知识联系起来。总体计划仍在制定中，但它的目标是开展与业务增长相关的研发，并利用我们多样化的跨学科研究基础，为我们的社会和行业合作伙伴带来真正的好处和影响。我们的目标是开发至少5个关于阅读NERC资助的科学的影响的高质量案例研究，并聘请一位经验丰富的案例研究作者来做这件事。预计案例研究将以网络为基础，酌情使用照片和视频，以使其具有最广泛的吸引力和影响。此外，我们的目标是确定案例学生奖学金和KE奖学金的潜在影响，以便为未来的发展确定一系列合适的案例研究。总体而言，NERC IAA将受到业务关系专家和一个小组的监督，并与所要求的交付成果密切一致。小组成员包括理科院长、生命科学院长、研究和企业主任以及该大学影响战略小组的一名成员。

To strengthen interaction between NERC funded research and the user community in Phase 2, we will continue with the two pronged approach employed in Phase I; this has already enabled us to successfully increase our interaction withstakeholders. We will forward our learning from Phase 1 into Phase 2 projects:1. we will set up a fund that current and previous NERC grant holders, researchers and students can bid into for projects that will strengthen interaction with stakeholders, generally businesses, to accelerate impact2. a Business Relationship Specialist from our Research and Enterprise Department will work closely with successful applicants to support and facilities project deliverablesProjects are expected to be varied, though outputs will consistently aim to: 1. build on developing relationships made possible by the Phase 1 Pilot, as well as to stimulate relationships/product development as appropriate 2. create opportunities for additional new dialogues between University and targeted stakeholders that will enable mutual exploration of impact related activities3. highlighted the potential of NERC funded research in terms of economic and societal benefits 4. provide evidence for case studiesSupport for cross-project activities will be brought together through a new Strategic Environmental Programme currently under development. Our vision for the Programme will link the University's world leading NERC funded expertise in climate sciences, earth observation and environmental risk as well as food security. The overarching programme is still being developed, but it aims to undertake R & D relevant to business growth and deliver real benefit and impact for our societal and industrial partners, drawing across our diverse cross-disciplinary research base. We aim to develop at least 5 high quality case studies on the impact of Reading NERC funded science and engage an experienced case study writer to do so. It is envisaged that the case studies will be web based with photographs and videos as appropriate to give them the widest appeal and reach. In addition we aim to identify potential for impact from CASE Studentships and KE Fellowships so that a pipeline of suitable case studies can be identified for future development. Overall the NERC IAA will be monitored and closely aligned to required deliverables by the Business Relationship Specialist and a Panel which will include The Dean of Science, the Dean of Life Sciences, Director of Research & Enterprise and a Member of the University's Impact Strategy Team.
