The programme is a joint venture between the&nbsp;School of Mathematical Sciences and the Management Science department at Lancaster University. The cohort-based programme develops global research leaders by solving real-world problems to drive methodological advancements. Funded through awards from EPSRC, Lancaster University, and Industrial Partners, all partners see a national need for the cohort-based approach offered by STOR-i and work together to expand on its existing success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">STOR-i&#8217;s programme has an integrated MRes year, which helps to build a strong foundation for students to conduct their own research throughout their PhDs, giving them the essential skills and core knowledge they need to succeed going forward.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\"
