The Research Courses with Industry Scheme connects academia and businesses to drive innovation, research, and real-world impact. The scheme supports the creation and delivery of new or enhanced research-focused courses designed to develop advanced skills and generate knowledge ready for commercialisation.

What are the aims of the Research Courses with Industry Scheme?

By collaborating directly with industry partners to identify priority research topics and co-fund opportunities, the scheme ensures that business needs shape courses and placements. This hands-on approach gives students and researchers the chance to work on projects with genuine commercial and societal value, strengthening both regional capability and long-term innovation.
