SEPNet IPS Fellowship

SEPnet（东南物理网络）合作伙伴寻求1.0FTE IPS奖学金的支持，从2014年8月1日延长至2018年7月31日（HEFCE的SEPnet资助延长至2018年7月），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物理系工作。该研究员将在朴茨茅斯大学和苏塞克斯大学的STFC资助的研究小组中共同工作，由朴茨茅斯大学进行直接管理，但将花一半的时间与其他7个SEPnet合作部门的STFC资助的研究人员一起工作。IPS研究员将利用他们在商业世界的丰富经验以及对STFC重点领域的深入理解，专注于将研究中的想法和技术转化为学术界以外的经济影响，即：开发利用STFC资助研究中获得的技术的商业机会；利用现有的知识产权并开发新的知识产权；寻找资助伙伴与非资助伙伴之间的合作机会，并寻找机会将同事的知识和能力转移到传统科技资助基金领域以外的学科。这不是一个研究职位，因此，除了每周在SEPnet研究生院提供最多4小时的领导力，就业能力和创业精神的教学，并开发定制的在线资源，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SEPnet最近加入的合作伙伴开放大学（The Open University）现任IPS研究员的经验，以及SUPA（苏格兰大学物理联盟）的IPS研究员——SUPA主任Avril Manners是SEPnet独立咨询委员会的成员。学员还将受益于与SEPnet的雇主联络主任和她的9名官员团队（位于每个部门）的接触，以建立与相关企业的联系。此外，该研究员将被期望融入STFC的创新俱乐部，并参加TSB的在线创新论坛，并确定有用的会议和讲习班，以建立网络，并跟上创新和KT的发展。该研究员将大量和定期使用SEPnet的基础设施进行虚拟会议，并与整个财团的STFC研究人员进行接触，并根据需要访问面对面会议，优先考虑那些正在进行或正在进行的合作。研究员将提交半年一次的报告，并按要求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.
