> <<PhDOR.doc>> > Dear Colleagues, > > EPSRC has issued a call for proposals which seek pump-priming funding > for consortia of universities to co-operate in offering taught course > provision for PhD students in the mathematical sciences. At present a > group of major providers of OR training at PhD level are co-operating > to explore the possibility of a national taught course scheme in OR, > with Lancaster taking the lead in this. The OR Society has expressed > its support for such an initiative. > > If you think that your institution may be interested in contributing > to such a scheme or, indeed, making use of its provision for your own > PhD students then please do read the attached document and respond in > the manner suggested there. If you have any questions or comments, > please do send them to me or to my colleagues Richard Eglese and Adam > Letchford at the e-mail addresses given. Many thanks. > > Sincerely, Kevin Glazebrook > Professor of Statistics and Operational Research, > Lancaster University.
