Research Council

The Research Councils of the UK are government agencies responsible for particular areas of science and technology. They are non-departmental government bodies which receive public funds from the Department of Trade and Industry through the Office of Science and Technology. There are currently seven Research Councils: The Arts and Humanities Research Board is due to become the eighth research council in 2005, following a change in its official status. Research Councils UK (RCUK) is a partnership of all the research councils, through which they promote various joint activities and interact with the UK government. The MRC has its head office in central London, CCLRC is based at its Rutherford Appleton Laboratory, in Oxfordshire, and the other five research councils and RCUK operate from a single complex in Swindon. AHRB is based in Bristol.
