Virtual Research College
There is a single ESRC 'virtual' college, with about 100 members. The college covers all disciplines and areas of the social sciences. The college has three main purposes: - To be a forum for interactive discussion of the development of ESRC policy
- To provide a channel for information and advice into ESRC from the academic social science communities
- To assist with ESRC decision making, particularly on Small Grant applications.
College discussion is for the most part electronic. College members are selected in roughly equal parts by nomination from Learned Societies, by random choice from ESRC Grant-holders, and in part by Research Training and Development staff. In the latter case, the choice is made to cover fields of particular interest for the Council, and to maintain an appropriate gender and geographical balance.
