Sahlgrenska Academy’s undergraduate and graduate level courses must be nationally and internationally attractive and conducted with the highest quality. In addition to subject-related competence and close connection with research in each educational area, it also requires high educational competence in education.
In order to support educational development in the programs at Sahlgrenska Academy, the Education Council (UR) announces project funding that relates to the 2020 financial year.
- The announced amount is SEK 450,000. The amount is set aside for projects with free orientation.
- The funds will be allocated to several projects and paid to the institution concerned in the form of a targeted grant (core business). Applicants must be employed at Sahlgrenska Academy or adjunct to Sahlgrenska Academy and work with education at the undergraduate and / or advanced levels.
Sahlgrenska Academy’s pedagogical development project will contribute to increased awareness of educational issues. It is about putting educational development on the agenda so that it becomes a natural part of the development of the academy’s activities. Educational development projects should be relevant, concrete, feasible, must use research-based methods, be carried out with accuracy and include a plan for evaluation.
