Dear Head of Department,

The UKRI Policy Internships Scheme for 2024/25 is now open and the closing date for applications is 4.00pm on 2 October 2024.

The scheme provides the opportunity for doctoral students funded by the Research Councils of UKRI to undertake a three-month placement at one of a selected group of highly influential policy organisations. During their internship, the student undertakes training and experience on a policy topic agreed with their host partner that is relevant to both parties. The intention of the scheme is to embed students in an environment where they can engage with the process of converting research outputs into policy. These internships equip students with transferable skills and training relevant to the future career paths that the student may choose.

Please note, that STFC students are only permitted to apply for an internship at either Parliamentary Office for Science and Technology (POST) and Go-Science please.

Full details of how to apply, including links to the online application form and guidance documents are available through the  UKRI Policy Internships Scheme webpage.<https://www.ukri.org/apply-for-funding/studentships-and-doctoral-training/get-training-and-development-to-support-your-doctorate/ukri-policy-internships/>

The Policy Internships Scheme is coordinated by NERC on behalf of the other Research Councils of UKRI. Any queries relating to the application process should be directed to the NERC Talent and Skills team (researchcareers at nerc.ukri.org<mailto:researchcareers at nerc.ukri.org>) or the relevant host partner.

To encourage student uptake, we would ask you to please circulate this opportunity to your students through your usual channels.

Kind regards,

NERC Talent and Skills Team
