About This Opportunity

The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) offers standard research grants for researchers at eligible research organisations in the UK. These grants support excellent discovery-led research across a wide range of projects, from small short-term grants to multi-million pound research projects. Funding includes high-risk or high-return research embracing new concepts or techniques, feasibility studies, instrument development, project-specific equipment, and collaborative projects that cross different disciplines. There is no limit on the value of the grant or length of the project - applicants should request what is needed to deliver the proposed programme of research. EPSRC will award 80% of the full economic cost (FEC) of the project. Applications can be submitted in any field of research relevant to EPSRC's remit including AI, digital security, energy, engineering, healthcare technologies, ICT, manufacturing, mathematical sciences, physical sciences, and quantum technologies. This is a responsive mode opportunity with no closing date - applicants should submit when their application is ready.
