The Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP) scheme is AHRC's main mechanism for supporting doctoral students. It is a commitment of £164 million, over 11 awards, running from October 2014 to September 2022, by which time we will have supported more than 2,500 students. It is important that AHRC reviews and evaluates the effectiveness of the scheme. The supplier will undertake a robust, evidence-based review of the scheme which will enable AHRC to determine its future support for doctoral students.

The aim of the evaluation is to gain a better understanding of AHRC support for doctoral students through the DTP mechanism and whether the model itself is robust.

The main objective is to review the scheme against the original aims and principles for the scheme.
