SEPNet IPS Fellowship

SEPnet(东南物理网络)合作伙伴寻求支持，将1.0FTE IPS奖学金从2014年8月1日延长至2018年7月31日(SEPnet资金来自HEFCE，延长至2018年7月)，以便在朴茨茅斯大学、苏塞克斯大学、赫特福德郡大学、肯特大学、南安普顿大学、萨里大学、伦敦玛丽女王大学、伦敦皇家霍洛威大学和开放大学的9个SEPnet物理系之间开展工作。该研究员将与朴茨茅斯大学和苏塞克斯大学的STFC资助的研究小组共处，由朴茨茅斯大学负责直接的部门管理，但将花费一半的时间与其他7个SEPnet合作伙伴部门的STFC资助的研究人员合作。IPS研究员将利用他们在商业世界的丰富经验以及对STFC重点领域的深入了解，专注于将想法和技术从研究转化为学术界以外的经济影响，即：为利用STFC资助的研究产生的技术开发商业机会；利用现有的知识产权和开发新的知识产权；确定资助伙伴和非资助伙伴之间的合作机会，并确定将同事的知识和能力转移到传统科学、技术和创新中心领域以外的学术学科的机会。这不是一个研究岗位，因此，除了在SEPnet研究生院内提供每周最多4小时的领导力、就业能力和创业能力教学以及开发这些主题的定制在线资源外，该研究员将完全专注于发展SEPnet部门的技术和知识转移能力。IPS研究员将受益于位于SEPnet最近加入的合作伙伴开放大学的现有IPS研究员的经验，以及位于SUPA(苏格兰大学物理联盟)的IPS研究员的经验-SUPA主任Avril Manners是SEPnet独立咨询委员会的成员。这位研究员还将受益于与SEPnet的雇主联络主任和她的9名官员组成的团队(位于每个部门)，以实现与相关企业的联系。此外，研究员还将融入STFC的创新俱乐部，并参与TSB的在线创新论坛，寻找有用的会议和研讨会，以便建立联系，了解创新和KT的发展。研究员将大量和定期利用SEPnet的基础设施，进行虚拟会议，与整个联盟的STFC研究人员互动，并根据需要访问面对面的会议，优先考虑那些在第一时间悬而未决或积极合作的人。研究员将提交半年一次的报告，并根据需要出席半年一次的会议。

SEPnet (South East Physics network) partners seek support for a 1.0FTE IPS Fellowship to extend over 4 years from 1st August 2014 to 31 July 2018 (SEPnet funding from HEFCE extends to July 2018) to work across the 9 SEPnet Physics departments at the universities of Portsmouth, Sussex, Hertfordshire, Kent, Southampton, Surrey, Queen Mary University of London and Royal Holloway University of London and The Open University. The Fellow will be co-located in STFC funded research groups in the Universities of Portsmouth and Sussex with direct line management undertaken by Portsmouth but will spend half their time working with STFC funded researchers in the other 7 SEPnet partner departments.The IPS Fellow will use their significant experience of the commercial world as well as an in-depth understanding of STFC areas of emphasis to focus on moving ideas and technology from research into economic impact outside academia, namely: developing commercial opportunities for exploitation of technologies derived from STFC funded research; capitalising upon existing IP and developing new IP; identifying opportunities for collaboration between funding and non-funding partners and identifying opportunities to transfer colleagues' knowledge and capability to academic disciplines outside traditional STFC areas. It is not a research post so, other than providing up to 4 hours per week of teaching within the SEPnet Graduate School on Leadership, Employability and Entrepreneurship and developing bespoke on-line resources on these topics, the Fellow will focus entirely on developing SEPnet departments' capacity for technology and knowledge transfer.The IPS Fellow will benefit from the experience of the current IPS Fellow located at SEPnet's recently joined partner, The Open University, and from the IPS Fellow located in SUPA (Scottish Universities' Physics Alliance) - Avril Manners, Director of SUPA, is a member of SEPnet Independent Advisory Committee. The Fellow will also benefit from engagement with SEPnet's Employer Liaison Director and her team of 9 Officers (located in each department) to enable links with relevant businesses. Furthermore the Fellow will be expected to integrate into STFC's Innovations Club and participate in TSB's on-line innovation fora and to identify useful meetings and workshops to enable networking and to keep abreast of developments in innovation and KT.The Fellow will make significant and regular use of SEPnet's infrastructure for virtual meetings and engagement with STFC researchers across the consortium as well as visiting for face-to-face meetings as required, prioritising those with pending or active collaborations in the first instance.The Fellow will submit biannual reports and present at half yearly meetings as required.
