About This Opportunity

The EPSRC overseas travel grants (OTGs) provide funding for visits overseas to learn new techniques, or form and develop collaborations. The program supports researchers based at eligible UK research organisations to undertake international travel in any field of research relevant to EPSRC's remit. EPSRC is committed to the continued support of excellent discovery led research as detailed in EPSRC's strategic delivery plan 2022 to 2025. The grants are designed to add value to existing or future research and innovation, promote collaboration, support the acquisition and development of skills, and benefit the countries, organisations and regions involved. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis with no fixed closing dates, and applications will be batched internally for assessment. We will award 80% of the full economic cost (FEC) of the project.
