NCRM International Visitor Exchange Scheme (IVES)
The National Centre for Research Methods (NCRM) is pleased to invite applications for the second round of its International Visitor Exchange Scheme (IVES) (see results of the first round here). IVES is aimed at enabling UK social scientists to engage with methods development internationally, in order to stimulate debate and develop ideas (with associated outputs) in relation to methodological innovation in the social sciences. The scheme provides for incoming and outgoing visiting scholar awards. The incoming visiting scholar awards are for noted overseas experts working at the forefront of key methodological areas to visit a UK centre of methodological excellence in the social sciences. The outgoing visiting scholar awards will enable early and mid-career researchers from the UK in the social sciences to visit a centre of methodological excellence outside the UK. Applications for both types of visitor exchange schemes must be submitted via a UK Higher Education Institution (HEI), either as the employer of the outgoing scholar, or the host of the incoming scholar.

Training bursaries
The ESRC wishes to improve the standards of research methods and to stimulate the uptake of high quality training courses in research methods across the UK social science community. The bursaries, for up to £500 each, enable staff in the UK social science community engaged in research, teaching research methods or supervising research to update their research skills. Contract researchers working in HEIs are also eligible for the bursaries.
