BILT Associate Projects

BILT provides both academic and professional services staff with a range of opportunities to engage in activities related to the University’s education strategy and the Institute’s priority teaching and learning themes. 

Associate projects are one such activity, providing staff with the opportunity to work on specific projects defined by BILT and aligned to the University’s priorities. They offer the chance for staff to engage in educational research and in scholarship of learning and teaching. Associate projects offer an opportunity to work with a range of colleagues on an institutionally important project and to make a real difference. Some projects will have the potential for dissemination beyond Bristol, and for publication. 

There is a minimum time commitment of 10 days across the academic year for those wishing to take part in the project.
