*** This opportunity will be available soon. The next call is expected to open in 2021. The following information is subject to change. *** The Royal Academy of Engineering invites applications for its industrial fellowships. These enable mid-career academics and industrialists to undertake a collaborative research project in either an industrial or academic environment, where one party would host the other. The fellowships aim to strengthen the strategic relationship between industry and academia by providing an opportunity to establish or enhance collaborative research between the two parties. The following two fellowship strands are available: •academia-to-industry – for mid-career academics who hold a permanent academic teaching or research contract at a UK university with at least two years experience and a significant presence in the UK; •industry-to-academia – for degree qualified, chartered engineers who hold a permanent post in the UK in an industrial organisation and at least five years work experience. The scheme is open to engineers from all disciplines. Applicants can be of any nationality. Industrial Fellows can be hosted by an academic institution or an industrial organisation, and should be partnered with an industrial or academic partner accordingly. SMEs are particularly welcomed. International fellowships are only acceptable where a UK based applicant will take a secondment overseas within the academia-to-industry strand. Fellowships are worth up to £100,000 each and are tenable for up to two years full-time or part-time. Funding covers salary costs.
