Tuks Young Research Leader Programme 2015
The TYRLP’s inaugural workshop was presented on 23 and 24 November 2015. Twenty-two fellows attended the two-day, intensive, on-site programme on UP’s Hatfield Campus. The process involved an approach that cycled between theory, application and reflection. Participants were challenged to work collaboratively to design initiatives that advance a new paradigm for their science.
The programme aims to form within the University a community of like-minded young researchers who possess qualities that will contribute towards UP becoming a leading research-intensive University, in line with the projected UP 2025 vision. Following this initial workshop, the ASLP team will engage with the TYRLP fellows for a year, sharing information on resources and stimulating further interaction.
