Funding support
The Learning and Teaching Academy oversees a range of funding streams and support to enable staff to engage in educational research, programmes of study including PhDs, and leadership development.
University Staff Development Fund
During each academic year, the staff development fund review panel considers around 70 applications and approves contributions towards over 50 colleagues undertaking accredited programmes of study including the university’s taught education programmes. These contributions support colleagues in academic partner colleges and executive office and include funding for doctorates, masters, post and undergraduate programmes.
Leadership development funding
Advance HE Aurora Leadership Development Programme
Aurora is Advance HE’s leadership development programme for those identifying as women. Engagement in the programme is a part of the LTA's approach to building collaborative and supportive networks of colleagues focusing on leadership development.
