Schemes for Engineers in Research and Development
MOD Research Fellowship
This application round is now closed, the following is for information purposes only
This is an opportunity for a highly capable and
innovative engineer to investigate techniques for
the management, absorption or dissipation of the
energy associated with large blast or impact
loadings in order to minimise structural damage. The
emphasis should be on the investigation of novel and
innovative engineering methods rather than the
development of new materials. There will be
opportunities to work with research, development and
modelling teams within Defence Science and
Technology Laboratory (Dstl) and possibly with some
of Dstl’s industrial and academic partners.
Funding and Duration
The Fellowship is offered for
five years and funding will be on a full economic
costing basis and include gross salary, indirect and
estates costs. Full costing details will be required
from applicants who are selected for interview.
Eligibility
Due to the nature of
the research and involvement with Dstl applicants
must be UK nationals. Appointment will be dependant
on the applicant obtaining MOD security clearance
and placement of a non-disclosure agreement with
Dstl.
Ideally applicants will have
less than three years post doctoral experience, or
who are about the complete their PhD, and can be
working in any engineering discipline.
