STFC Data

Grants

Introduction

This section contains data on STFC (and formerly PPARC) research grants awarded and applied for.

Information on STFC grants can be viewed according to a variety of factors including:

• Grants Applied for by number | Applied for by value
• Grants Awarded by number | Awarded by value
• Grants Payments by UK Regions & outside UK | by English Region
• Grants Payments by University
• Grants Applied for by gender
• Grants Applied for by age
• 2009/10 Overall Grant Success Rates by Value and Number
• 2010/11 Overall Grant Success Rates by Value and Number

Data limitation note

When viewing the statistics in this section it is worth noting that there isn't always a direct relationship between the number or value of grants applied for and the number or value of grants awarded. This is largely due to timing. For instance, if a grant application was made towards the end of one financial year the final decision to award it may not be made until the start of the following financial year.

There will always be some 'time lag' in the statistics for grants applied for and grants awarded. For this reason data in the tables for the number of grants applied for is more a measure of volume rather than an indication of success rates.
