Can any higher education institution (HEI) be in the employing partnership?
The HEI must be in England and currently receive quality-related research (QR) funding for research in nursing, midwifery or allied health professions. In other words those having made at least one submission in Units of Assessment 11 and 12 to the 2008 Research Assessment Exercise. HEIs not meeting this eligibility criterion or wishing to submit an individual working in healthcare science must attach a supporting statement describing how the HEI will be able to provide a suitable research environment to support the nominee. The statement should provide evidence of a strong and established healthcare research environment into which the nominated individual will be fully integrated. The statement should also include information on their investment in the areas of nursing, midwifery, allied health professions and healthcare science and the HEI’s strategies for promoting and developing research staff in these areas.
