Jean Cater, Assistant Director of The Leverhulme Trust visited Staffordshire University yesterday to give a presentation about research funding opportunities available through the Trust, followed by a Q&A session. Jean offered an insight into the decision-making process and some helpful “dos and don’ts” when making an application.

The event took place in Court Room 2 in The Law School and was very well attended by academic and project staff from Universities of Keele, Derby, Wolverhampton, Birmingham City, Manchester Met as well as Staffordshire.

Following the presentation, delegates could take part in small group discussions to talk informally about their experiences in making both successful and unsuccessful applications.
