About
The MRC Industrial CASE (iCASE) studentships programme offers up to 5 studentships for doctoral study at Cambridge, to start in October 2023. These studentships allow postgraduate research students to receive high quality research training, with the additional benefit of working closely with an industrial partner. These collaborations will provide MRC iCASE students with unique technical and transferable skills, as well as an insight into how commercial science is conducted, and entrepreneurial opportunities.
The industry partner specifies a research project that will be of importance to them, and provides a placement at their premises for the student of at least 3 months, together with an additional non-academic supervisor. Projects for MRC iCASE studentships will be advertised in Oct 2022, and can be based in either the School of Clinical Medicine, or the School of Biological Science. For further details on the application process, please refer to the MRC DTP website: https://mrcdtp.medschl.cam.ac.uk/.
Each studentship is fully-funded for four years with a stipend of £18,000 p.a., and includes all course fees, plus a research training support grant.
