This year EPSRC and the DIUS decided that there would only be paired awards for DHPA this year. Paired awards from core private sector sponsors are normally strongly associated with particular research organisations, departments or supervisors. They are therefore seeking contacts in companies that they could approach to set up paired awards. If any suggested contact made by staff in UoM leads to a company participating, then that is likely to be a company that we have good research links with and therefore we will stand a good chance of getting a studentship.
