WFS Collaborative SOTL Research Project Fund

Deadline for proposal submissions: 15 April 2024, 17:00

This new project fund offers the opportunity for collaborative research of teaching and learning to benefit predominantly international students preparing for or already undertaking degree study at any level at the University of Warwick.

All projects need to include Warwick Foundation Studies teaching-focused colleagues as leads working with at least one other department from across the institution.

IATL Project Funding

The scheme for staff and student calls for the 2024/25 academic year will open in due course

IATL provides funding and support for two types of projects:

• Staff-led projects related to teaching and learning
• Student-led research or performance projects

We provide funding and support for staff-led projects. All projects need to:

• relate to teaching and learning at Warwick
• be relevant to IATL’s strategy:IATL's strategy (warwick.ac.uk)
• include element(s) of innovation and/or incubation.

The higher the amount applied for, the more we expect projects to have a strategic focus and impact:

• Projects over £1,500 should engage withWarwick's Education Strategy 
• Higher levels of funding must be matched by increased engagement with the Education Strategy and priorities
• Strategic projects also need a plan to sustain outcomes after the project ends, supported by an element of the budget.

Students at any level of study can apply for up to £1,500 for two types of projects:

• research
• performance

Research proposals can address any field or area, including interdisciplinary topics. We encourage co-creation within student-led projects where possible but this is not required.
