Our Team
The EnvEast Doctoral Training Partnership is governed by a Strategy Board that includes academic members from core partners who have experience in training Postgraduate Research students in NERC science, as well as senior administrative staff, student representatives from each cohort, and representatives of 'end user' organisations. Financial oversight is provided by UEA's Faculty of Science Finance Office.
