International Scholarship Scheme
The HEA’s international scholarship scheme has been designed to benefit the UK Higher Education (HE) sector by bringing back interesting, challenging and innovative learning and teaching practice to the UK.
This new scheme is aimed at supporting individuals in the sector to undertake specific investigations outside of the UK and deliver specific outcomes for dissemination within the UK sector at the end of the scholarship through various means, as appropriate to enhance the UK student learning experience.
The focus of a scholarship should align with at least one of the Academy’s seven priority themes of: Assessment, Education for Sustainable Development, Employability, Internationalisation, Flexible Learning, Retention and Success, and Reward and Recognition of Teaching. Specific investigations could include research, evaluation, data collection, and/or scholarship.
Please note that the focus of the scholarship should not be attending an international conference, although it might form part of an individual’s proposal.
The deadline for receipt of applications was Tuesday 31st January 2012. For further information and any questions relating to the International Scholarships please email internationalscholarships@heacademy.ac.uk.
The list of successful candidates can be seen here.
The next call for proposals is anticipated to be in autumn 2012.
