Application process for host universities
All applications must be submitted via the online form in the Academy’s grant management system.
Applications should be submitted by the primary point of contact for the proposal.
Applicant guidance notes to support you in completing your application can be downloaded on the right-hand side of this page. We recommend reading the guidance notes in full before starting your application.
Application form completion tips
We recommend viewing the application form early on to understand what is required. You should also ensure that you have all the necessary documentation to hand when you start completing the application.
How to complete the application form
Once you have logged in to the grant management system, the application form can be found in the ‘start application’ section under ‘Research Ready’.
There are six sections to the application form to be completed, as below:
- Applicant and institution details
- Research placement details
- Case for support
- Funding requested
- Applicant declaration
- Marketing
At any stage in the application process, you can save your work and return to it later. You can answer the questions in any order you like.
There is only one application stage. Following the application deadline, those meeting the eligibility criteria will enter the assessment stage.
Application process for students
Applications for students will open in early 2025. The call for student applications, review, and selection of students will be organised by successful host universities.
