CENTRE-UB behavioural research innovation and excellence is focussed around understanding behaviour.
The mission of CENTRE-UB is:
- To produce the next generation of well-rounded researchers with expertise in behavioural research who are ready to take up leadership-track positions in academia, industry, policy and wider professional communities;
- To promote a positive research culture and a commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) through specific training and good practice. Engagement with stakeholders, experts-by-experience and the public is embedded throughout.
- To deliver training and knowledge exchange that brings cutting edge, actionable insights to policymakers, industry and charitable sectors, leading to impact in communities beyond Higher Education.
CENTRE-UB will provide a training environment characterised by excellent science, cutting edge methods, interdisciplinarity, and translation through our critical mass of world-leading and internationally excellent research conducted by our behavioural researchers. Co-production of human behaviour-related research and impact, as well as co-delivery of training, is a key part of CENTRE-UB with partners organisations hosting PhD students for research-in-practice placements, hosting fellows and acting as co-supervisors or mentors of all trainees. Partner organisations will also provide training to CENTRE-UB to PhD students and postdoctoral research fellows and will host outreach events with a focus on human behaviour.
We are delighted to announce the 2024 call for applicants for CENTRE-UB PhD studentships.
Our call for applications for the early career research fellowships will be announced here soon.
