Request

Request Received: 7 June 2023

Could you please provide a breakdown of the Maximum Award amounts for each research funding call across UKRI over the past five years (covering calls announced/run between 01/01/2018 - 01/06/2023)?

It would be helpful to see what the average Maximum Award amounts were across the different research funding calls run by UKRI over that period to see how the Maximum Award totals have changed.

This would not need to detail the values of the projects awarded, just the Maximum Award amounts for the calls themselves (for example the current UKRI cross research council responsive mode pilot scheme: round 1<https://www.ukri.org/opportunity/ukri-cross-research-council-responsive-mode-pilot-scheme/> has a Maximum Award amount of £1,200,000 and the BBSRC standard research grant<https://www.ukri.org/opportunity/bbsrc-standard-research-grant/> has a Maximum Award amount of £2,000).
