BU’s single greatest asset is its staff and their collective output in terms of education, research, enterprise and professional practice will have a major role in developing BU into a more academically led institution for the future.

As a ‘graduate’ of the Releasing Research and Enterprise Potential (RREP) Programme we are pleased to welcome you to the sequel Enhancing Research, Enterprise and Professional Practice Programme. The EREPP Programme builds on the good work that started with the RREP Programme, which was designed to build the confidence and competence of academic staff in engaging in research and enterprise activities. Once again we are pleased to welcome members of the Professoriate and other senior academic staff in supporting us in facilitating the Programme.

EREPP Programme: 2009-2010

The EREPP Programme has been developed in response to feedback from the ‘graduates’ of the RREP Programme. RREP graduates told us that they would like more master-classes, workshops and events on topics such as funding and publication. Many asked for more emphasis to be placed on enterprise activities. In addition a new theme that is being developed for the EREPP Programme is that of Professional Practice
