I have been lucky to get BBRSC funding. I noticed they updated their student handbook recently and increased funding by 2k for this year. Obviously, I am happy to get money that I did not expect. Are these annual increases normal - or is this just an exception year? - Is this linked to the extra govenment spending on science .
Some more info on this 'Post Roberts Review' document, see point six:
Whilst the minimum studentship has been rising every year recently, it's unclear whether this trend will continue. That document states that the minimum funding target of £12000pa by 2005/06 has been succesfully reached. Does anyone know about funding for 2006/07?
