University of the West of Scotland’s Learning, Teaching & Research Conference will be held on Wednesday 26th and Thursday 27th June, 2019 at our new, award-winning Lanarkshire Campus.
We are delighted to announce that it will be run in partnership with Space Solutions (Scotland) Ltd, incorporating haa design, the interior architecture and space planning experts who took the empty shell of what would become Lanarkshire campus and turned it into a stunning location for learning, teaching and research.
This is our second conference to combine research and enterprise with learning and teaching, building on our successful event in June 2018 which explored the linkages and connections between these areas.
Our first keynote speaker, David Price OBE, is an expert in organisational learning for a complex future and will explore the role of higher education in an increasingly challenging world. He will also lead a masterclass on the first day of the conference.
Our second keynote speaker, Dr Tahir Hanif, will discuss how modern universities need to capitalise on their industry-centred research and development to enrich the learning and personal development of their students, helping them to address the global challenges and societal needs of the future.
The draft programme for the conference is now available and will be updated as the event draws closer. To book your place at the conference, go to the registration page.
We look forward to seeing you soon!
