Collaborative Research Opportunities

28 September 2011

Funding is available for projects that match academic expertise with business-focused research needs. Students can undertake a KESS Mini (a one-year research project linked to an MPhil qualification) with fees waived, a stipend of £9,000 tax free and a budget of around £5,000 (with an additional £200 for academic supervisors).

Commercialisation and Consultancy Services (CCS) are operating a ‘Rolling Call’ for this funding opportunity and we will accept applications for consideration as and when they arrive.  Please note, however, that as the number of projects available is reduced, it is likely that we will change to a standard call process, with a set deadline for applications.

Further Information:

• KESS for Business Partners
• KESS for Staff / Students

KESS is part-funded by the European Social Fund through the European Union's Convergence Programme (West Wales and the Valleys) by the Welsh Government.
