Cambridge NERC Doctoral Landscape Awards and Doctoral Training Partnerships

The Cambridge Research Experience and Advanced Training for Environmental Scientists (CREATES) is our programme of PhD studentships under the Doctoral Landscape Awards scheme. It will start with the first intake in October 2025. Like its predecessors, Climate Life and Earth (C-CLEAR, 2019-2024 intakes), and The Cambridge Earth System Sciences (ESS, 2014-2018 intakes) Doctoral Training Partnerships it will provide PhD training across NERC science. Embedded in the outstanding research environments of the University of Cambridge and the British Antarctic Survey (BAS), the Cambridge DLAs and DTPs are organised around three major research themes: Solid Earth and Geological Hazards, Climate Change and Environmental Processes, and Biology and Conservation.

Students in the CREATES and C-CLEAR cohorts engage in research projects of global significance across NERC science, and receive high-quality training in research, professional, technical and transferable skills through a focused core programme. Training is guided by personalised advice and the expertise of a network of partners in industry, government, the third sector and beyond.
