Faculty of Science Pedagogic Research Group
Learning about learning
A shared interest in education-related research within the sciences and beyond
The Faculty of Science Pedagogic Research Group was founded in 2014. It is comprised of academic staff from the three science Schools and service teams within the Faculty and Registry, including three Higher Education Academy National Teaching Fellows.
Members are actively involved in disseminating their work through international conferences and journal publications. This may be to audiences restricted to a particular subject area within science or through studies that are of general relevance to the UK higher education community.
