Fellowships

Fellows are a community of pedagogic researchers who are working alongside their role at the University to explore an area of interest within teaching and learning. Our fellows are a mix of academic and professional staff from right across the University.

As well as producing academic publications and conference papers the work of our Fellows informs decision making and practice across the University. Your can hear more about the fellows experiences and outputs through our LITE Bites podcast.

If you are interested in applying for a LITE Fellowship starting in 2024 then please see our fellowship application page for more details and a link sign up to attend a fellowship application briefing session on 24th April 2024.
