Teaching and learning scholarship is fundamental to good teaching practice and to building and delivering a robust curriculum. The BIMHSE Research and Scholarship Programme is host to a vibrant community of health care professions educators who are interested in taking a scholarly approach to teaching and learning in their own practice and in bringing the same approach to the Faculty. The programme aims to stimulate interest and develop expertise in medical and health sciences education research and scholarship among learners and colleagues at all stages of their careers by providing opportunities and support to build a self-sustaining research community.
