The Lloyd’s Register Foundation invites applicationsfor its research grants. These support engineering-related research on enhancing the safety of the engineering infrastructure on which modern society relies. Project should address the foundation’s missions, which are to: •secure, for the benefit of the community, high technical standards of design, manufacture, construction, maintenance, operation and performance for the purpose of enhancing the safety of life and property, at sea, on land and in the air; •advance public education including within the transportation industries and any other engineering and technological disciplines. Grants are awarded to research and education organisations, not individuals, and applicants may be based in any country. Funding does not support capital works or infrastructure, and equipment is funded only as a small proportion of research programmes.
