Following a review of the
Cooperative Research Centre Programme, there have been some changes, notably
the addition of CRC Projects, or CRC-Ps for short. CRC-Ps will open for
applications on Monday 1st February, as will the new CRC selection round.
As yet, the instructions for submission are not known, and so the Programme Guidelines are attached here.
MRO would like to offer
proposal development support to applicants intending to apply. Applicants

MRO can also offer compliance and eligibility reviews through the ARC
