Outline studentship submission - CTP for Sustainable Agricultural Innovation

Selection of CTP studentships follows two tracks.

Track 1 is that each industry partner is able to select a studentship highlighting their own research interests.

Track 2 is that the remaining projects are ranked by their academic scores, and the top project(s) is considered for funding.

Note all industry and academic partner investigator names will be redacted for the purposes of blind review and to ensure no unconscious bias in selection.

The deadline for project submission is on 7th July 2023. Selected projects will be revealed in September 2023.
