<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="color:#002060">EPSRC have been in touch to let us know of a new opportunity being offered by UKRI.

<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="color:#002060">As part of UKRI’s memorandum of understanding with the National Research Council of Canada, UKRI and Canadian doctoral students can participate in a UK-Canada research exchange scheme. The £2.5M programme
is being delivered by Mitacs, a national, not-for-profit organization that has designed and delivered research and training programs in Canada for 20 years. The programme will enable up to 200 UK doctoral candidates to participate in 12 week research placements
in Canadian Universities and develop into global citizens, with international competencies. A similar number of Canadian Students will be able to visit UK universities.
<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="color:#002060"> <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="color:#002060">Opening for applications in autumn 2019, the UK-Canada Globalink Doctoral Exchange Scheme will support travel, living and research costs for the students in their chosen field of study. Following a competitive
application process, the first exchanges will take place from April 2020. More information about Mitacs can be found
<a href="https://www.mitacs.ca/en"><span style="color:#002060">here</span></a>, including details and testimonies from those who have taken part previously. The scheme will be open to UKRI-funded and Canadian doctoral students working in all areas. For UKRI
students, Globalink Research Placements are currently available at over 45 universities across Canada in a variety of academic disciplines from science, engineering and mathematics to the humanities and social sciences. It is expected that universities that
have either a CDT or DTP allocation will be eligible to host placements, but full details will be available in September 2019.
