The EPSRC and NERC Industrial Centre for Doctoral Training for Offshore Renewable Energy (IDCORE)* programme addresses future challenges to develop leading technologies and train world-class scientists and engineers essential for the UK to sustain its global status in the Ocean Renewable Energy (ORE) sector.IDCORE provides companies in the offshore energy industry with access to world-leading academic expertise, address important technical challenges and help develop the next generation of industry leaders in offshore renewable energy. Following a year of focused technical and financial ORE teaching at university, researchers are then matched with a company for a three year research placement.Each industrial research project is proposed and directed by the individual sponsoring company and each of the programme's research engineers are further supported by a panel of academic supervisors with expertise in the field. Projects can focus on any aspect of offshore renewable energy and should aim to make an original contribution to the company's activities and practices or to knowledge in general.Consortia (multi-sponsor) projects are also encouraged to enable research topics of wide interest to be addressed. Proposals are expected to fit with the vision of IDCORE as well as with the needs of the industrial sponsor.Previous students have worked on research projects with sponsors such as Albatern, E.ON, EDF, EMEC, ETI, Innosea Xodus, Mocean Energy, Nova Innovation, Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult, Sustainable Marine Energy and Wood.This engineering doctorate programme is a collaborative partnership between the University of Edinburgh, University of Exeter, Strathclyde University and the Scottish Association for Marine Science (SAMS).
