Premia conditions of use

About the project

‘Premia - making research education accessible' grew from a HEFCE-funded project based at Newcastle University from 2003 to 2005.

The project's aims were to:

• improve provision for disabled postgraduate researchers
• increase the number of disabled researchers at UK institutions
• improve the quality of their experience.

The project was led by the Premia advisory group and relied on many contributors. Val Farrar is acknowledged in particular for her valuable contributions.

The collection of downloadable resources was designed to address the issues that were identified by disabled postgraduate researchers in the research phase of the project.

Vitae now manages the Premia resources and has integrated Premia content and extracts into the researcher section of the Vitae website. In addition, there is also a substantial section on supervising disabled PGRs in the supervisor section, along with Premia resources for staff supporting researchers, disability advisers and employers.
