Enhancement Topic Funding Call
The Enhancement Themes were a Scottish initiative that aimed to strengthen and improve the student experience at university. The Enhancement Themes closed in summer 2023, but we are continuing the Themes ethos with the St Andrews Enhancement Topic. Examples of previously funded initiatives through the Enhancement Themes include:
- Research Projects (e.g. a study investigating the wellbeing of first year students)
- Resources (e.g. interactive movies and online guides)
- Events (e.g. mini conferences, networking sessions, and exhibitions)
- Other (e.g. developing a mentoring scheme and a programme to help students reintegrate after a leave of absence)
We support funding applications of up to £1000 that identify and meet the emerging needs of our increasingly diverse student community. This year we have a particular focus on two aspects of the student experience:
- Student Belonging
- Digital Learning
We welcome collaborative applications from students and staff across St Andrews, particularly those that encourage collaboration between disciplines; are student-led or involve students; or bring together colleagues from different academic Schools and Units.
Applications are due: 12 noon, Tuesday 6th February and should be submitted using the online application form.
If you have any queries, or wish to discuss your ideas, please don’t hesitate to get in touch: [email protected].
