Higher Education Curriculum Innovation Advisor
Maths, Stats and OR (MSOR) Network, 08/2010-09/2012.
I worked at the University of Birmingham as HE Curriculum Innovation Advisor for the Maths, Stats and OR (MSOR) Network, as part of the National HE STEM Programme. This involved research, staff development and distributing funding (approx. £250k) for 33 curriculum development projects at 27 universities. A series of publications was produced which is available via the Mathcentre website (backup via the MSOR Network website). An overview of the work is given in the booklet Summary of work in mathematical sciences HE curriculum innovation.
