Research funding
In 2012 and the first part of 2013 we issued research tenders with a total value in excess of £250k. This demonstrates a significant commitment to enhancement of the evidence base for learning and teaching in the UK. Our recent research outputs have made an impact across the sector and helped establish the HEA as the primary body to address the pressing current issues in higher education research and policy in the UK. Our current research projects address the theme of the impact of (the shifting HE landscape) recent reforms in higher education policy on learning and teaching in the UK, which will be the primary focus of our attention over the next few years. Later in 2013 we will be announcing further funding in this area.
Teaching Development Grants
Over the next year there will be a total of £1.5 million of funding available for individual grants, departmental grants and collaborative grants. This bid-based development grant funding exists to stimulate evidence-based research and encourage innovations in learning and teaching that have the potential for sector-wide impact.
