Chair in emerging technologies award - RAoE deadlinePrimary funder name: Royal Academy of Engineering Closing date: 11 Aug 20 Full text: The Royal Academy of Engineering, funded by the National Productivity Investment Fund, invites applications for its chair in emerging technologies award. This provides researchers with long-term support, enabling them to lead in developing emerging technology areas with high potential to deliver economic and social benefit to the UK. The aim is to enable technologies to advance to application in a strategic manner through sustained focus. Applicants are encouraged to make a case for disruptive innovation in well established areas or overlooked fields as well as new emerging technologies. Evidence of proof of concept should already be established. The appointed chair will: •lead major research, translation and innovation programmes around key emerging technologies; •build centres of excellence in strategically important technologies, supporting their commercialisation and adoption; •build and maintain a strong network of industrial and other partners to facilitate technology commercialisation and the creation of significant UK economic and social benefit. Researchers who have not been awarded a professorial title but have demonstrated achievements which strongly support their promotion may apply. They may be academics from across a broad range of engineering and technology areas. Awards can only be held at universities, or jointly between a university and a national or independent organisation, based in the UK. Applications from high-calibre researchers currently based outside the UK are welcome. Applications must include a letter of support from a dean, pro-vice chancellor for research or someone in a similar position. Up to eight awards are available with a value of £2.78 million each over ten years to cover employment and research costs.
