Schemes for Engineers in Research and Development Research Exchanges with China and India Scheme Awards support visits of 3-12 months and should be part of longer-term efforts to build UK-China/India partnerships. Awards provide funding at a flat rate of £24,000 per annum (or pro rata for shorter visits) regardless of the direction of travel. Joint (two-way) Exchanges are also possible. These allow a researcher at a UK-based Institution to travel to a Chinese/Indian Institution and also for a China/India based researcher at that Institution to travel to the same UK Institution. The total funding available for a Joint Exchange is the same as for a single Award. Exchanges between 3-6 months may be either pre-existing collaborations or new collaborations. Exchanges longer than 6 months for pre-existing collaborations must initiate new technical collaborations as continuation studies will not be supported. Eligibility Researchers should have an excellent and established track record in research. All researchers travelling overseas must be at post-doctoral level or above (or demonstrate equivalent research experience). The UK and overseas researchers applying should have a permanent position at a University or Research Institute. Industrial researchers and establishments are not eligible.
