Visiting Professors' Scheme
Visiting Professors in Integrated System Design:
How to Apply
What we are looking for is a
brief outline from you, describing how you would
make use of a practising engineer (with significant
experience of working on complex integrated system
projects), to improve the awareness and
understanding of your undergraduate students about
successful system integration. If you can identify a
candidate visiting professor at this stage, so much
the better, but it is not essential. However, you
should have clear ideas on the type of candidate you
will be looking for to fill the post, and also where
you will be looking for him/her. Please do not
prepare a detailed proposal at this stage. We shall
invite those universities whose outline proposals
are chosen by a panel from The Academy, to prepare
detailed proposals on a non-competitive basis.
We shall only make one award
to any university, and we shall be looking for
collaboration across the disciplines in line with
the nature of commercial integrated system projects.
We should encourage you to talk with other
colleagues that you feel might be interested in
applying to this scheme. It may prejudice your
application if we receive competing bids from the
same university that appear to cover similar ground.
If you have any queries,
please send an e-mail to the scheme manager Ian Bowbrick. Outline bids must be with us
by March 31st 2006. We shall tell you whether your
proposal has been accepted by late April.
