About us

What we do

We are working to provide educational inspiration, training and support in an institution committed to a research-led education and student experience of the highest quality."

Professor Martyn Kingsbury, Director of Educational Development

The EDU offers a broad spectrum provision that provides a needs-based and timely approach to the educational development of all who teach Imperial students.

Our provision includes a suite of stand-alone workshops covering various aspects of learning and teaching, a range of taught programmes up to master's level and a bespoke consultancy service for all involved in teaching at Imperial.

We are a part of Imperial's Centre for Higher Education Research and Scholarship.

Who we are

We are a small group of academics and support staff from a variety of different disciplinary backgrounds, the former of whom have experience of teaching and supervision at undergraduate and postgraduate level, with expertise in educational theory and practice.
