What is Low Carbon shorter Knowledge Transfer Partnership (sKTP) Funding?
This is a government funded scheme available to businesses to facilitate research collaboration with UK universities. The funding benefits businesses by providing expert guidance at a reduced rate. A Low Carbon sKTP is a three way partnership between a business, university (the knowledge base) and a recently qualified graduate. The Low Carbon sKTP enables universities to work with innovative organisations in this rapidly changing, cutting edge field. The project length is typically between 10 and 40 weeks. The graduate works at the business with guidance and support from the university, serving as a conduit for expertise from the university. Low Carbon sKTP are unique in that the funding is still available if the graduate is only employed part-time. In most cases the graduate will spend 100% of their time at the business, with a visiting university or college expert providing support half a day a week.
