Professionalization & Innovation in Education Team (PIE)
Our Mission
The mission of PIE (Professionalization and Innovation in Education) is to support the teaching community of the Faculty of Science and Engineering (FSE) in improving their educational practice. We do this through professionalization of teaching staff and supporting and fostering educational development and innovation at the course, programme and faculty level.
Who are we?
We offer Faculty-specific educational support and are the first point of contact for teachers at the Faculty of Science and Engineering for questions related to educational development and innovation. All our team members have a background that combines educational expertise with one of the disciplines within the Faculty of Science and Engineering, which makes it possible to also connect with you, teachers, on the disciplinary level.
