We are pleased to invite applications for the latest round of NIHR ARC NWC Research Internships.

In this round, we are again offering internships to support individuals from our Member
organisations to:

• Prepare an NIHR Research Fellowship application – including Pre-Doctoral Doctoral Fellowship, Clinical Doctoral Research Fellowship, Development and Skills Enhancement Award, or Advanced Fellowship.

• Complete a Rapid Conversion Evidence Summary project (RaCES).

The internships are open to individuals employed within our Member organisations who have an established interest in research, implementation and evaluation, and are looking to begin the next stage of their research career.

A list of our current Members can be found here: https://arc-nwc.nihr.ac.uk/about/members/

For both types of internships, salary back-fill (a payment of £6000) will be provided to the intern’s employing organisation to assist with time release. During this time, interns will receive supervisory and other support at the appropriate University. Interns will also have the benefit of working alongside other interns and researchers throughout the programme.

Applicants for these Internships are expected to have a strong interest in research, a commitment to submitting an NIHR Research Fellowship application or completing the RaCES project, full managerial support, and ability to attend the appropriate University for supervisory meetings and any required training sessions.
