Each university is offering 4 ESRC WR DTC Network Studentships in Session 2012/13.  Each student project will be supervised by two members of academic staff, one each from two of the partner universities. Students will register at one university but will have access to the research facilities of the partner institution and will be part of one of the four research networks which span all three universities.
