<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The 2018 Industrial CASE studentship competition is now open.</span></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Call closes: 16:00 hrs 4 October 2018</span></b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The STFC Industrial CASE scheme provides an opportunity to apply for additional studentships. The studentships come with extra funding (compared with standard
studentships) for both the university and the student. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">The scheme provides support for students to work in collaboration with a non-academic partner on projects that fall within the STFC core science programme in
astronomy, particle physics and nuclear physics; or that aim to apply technologies or techniques developed within the programme into other areas.
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">We also support Industrial CASE-Plus studentships. Industrial CASE Plus extends the Industrial CASE studentship with the student spending a further year working
full-time on the premises of the non-academic partner as an employee.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">Non-academic partners in small and medium enterprises (SMEs) no longer need to make a contribution to the host university or to the student’s stipend. These
contributions – £1400 to the university and £2760 to the student – will be provided by STFC. SMEs would still be expected to fund the additional accommodation and travel costs associated with attending the non-academic partner and additional expenses incurred
due to the use of equipment and facilities. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">In addition, STFC will, for all CASE studentships, provide an enhancement to the student stipend of £1615 (compared with other STFC studentships).</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:115%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">There is one round each year and the next closing date is
