The aim of the Higher Education special interest group is to contribute towards and enhance critical debates and perspectives on higher education policy, pedagogy and practice. This is a broad remit that embraces interdisciplinary research with critical research methodologies, theories and philosophies. 

This SIG Meet and Discuss is aimed particularly at colleagues with teaching and scholarship roles who may not have the opportunity to attend multiple conferences or external events, how do you create an external network of peers? Join us for a discussion around networking as a busy academic and spend some time with colleagues interested in the same areas as you.
