<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">Following on from the discussions at the Faculty Forum at the end of March and the recent Departmental Committee I would like to form a picture of the thinking across the Department as to how we can contribute
to the improvement of the Department’s and Faculty’s financial positions. I am doing this in anticipation of the Dean asking me next Tuesday what we can do. Therefore I would appreciate if you could let me know any ideas you may have of initiatives, that could
have a positive effect. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">For instance, some colleagues have undertaken to talk to current or former students with the aim of their promoting Strathclyde as a study destination. Others are developing
innovative 4-year PhD programmes which will combine development of subject expertise with development of professional skills in higher education. Still others are prioritising submission of research grant applications. For the first time, licensing of education
(rather than research) is being investigated. The “circular economy” has been identified as a potential new area for PGT or CPD study (to be delivered by a partnership of Business, Engineering, and Science) and discussions around that will be initiated.
An idea for offering CPD in understanding materials to artists, hobbyists and other craft-makers is being explored.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

hope to be able to work with you on realising many of them to the benefit of the Faculty and University.
