Completed applications for visits to take place during 2020 should be received by

Completed applications should be submitted to the ESRC DTC Coordinator by email: esrcdt@sussex.ac.uk
Applicants must allow at least two months between the deadline to apply and commencing the visit. Therefore visits can commence any time between mid-January 2019 and end of December 2019.
Applications will be assessed by members of the ESRC DTC Operational Committee and you will be informed of the outcome as soon as possible after the decision is made.
You should read the Guidance Notes for Applicants and OIV things to think about before applying.
