| PI Contribution | The Joint Nottingham-Adelaide PhD Programme enables students to benefit from co-supervision while spending time at each institution, leading to a PhD degree awarded by two research-intensive universities. Our research team is supervising PhD students on this programme. The money from this award allowed us to visit Adelaide and expand the scheme dramatically. |
