Peer Review and Mentoring

The College’s Grant Application Peer Review Policy is designed to assist academic staff in achieving the highest possible academic and administrative standards in applications for external research funding.  It is based on a model of collegiate support whereby Staff who have a track record of success in applying for research grants from particular funding bodies (and in many cases also have experience of serving on grant awarding committees) provide assistance to their peers.
