Original Release Date: 22 Jan 2025

Campus Plus introduces the National Industry PhD Programme Grant Management System (NIPhD GMS) to replace the previous Physio system. The new Salesforce-based platform will manage the entire PhD journey, from initial expressions of interest through to completion. For Round 5, launching 3 February, the system will focus on full applications, with growers using Word documents that align with the GMS. Round 6 will introduce functionality allowing academics direct access. The system offers improved visibility, longitudinal data tracking, and streamlined processes for all stakeholders. Campus Plus will provide comprehensive support including training videos, quick-start guides, weekly bite-sized sessions, and drop-in sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Previous applications from Physio will be migrated to the new system, ensuring continuity and access to historical data for all universities.
