We are excited to announce that the LMS Education Committee has launched a call for applications for three new grant schemes which aim to support colleagues building a teaching and scholarship profile within higher education mathematics.
The central aim of these schemes is to support the ‘Pathways in Mathematics’ strategic goal of the LMS Strategy 2023–2028. As such, they seek to:
‘Promote the importance of mathematics and the provision of opportunities for those that wish to study and develop a career in mathematics and its applications’.
Single-Institution Teaching & Scholarship Project Grants
This scheme provides funding for innovative scholarship projects in general areas related to teaching and learning, curriculum, the student experience and student success. Projects funded under this scheme should take place within a single UK university.
Grants of up to £2,000 each are available for each project.
Collaborative Teaching & Scholarship Project Grants
The scheme provides funding for innovative scholarship projects in general areas related to teaching and learning, curriculum, the student experience and student success. Projects funded under this scheme should be collaborative and take place across two or more UK universities.
Grants of up to £3,000 are available for each project.
Scholarship Network Grants
The scheme will fund networking activities aimed at developing scholarship projects in general areas related to teaching and learning, and the wider student experience e.g. through regional or national meetings or events.
One grant of up to £1,000 is available per funding round.
Applications must be made via the online form which is linked on each scheme's page. For queries on this or any other education grant scheme, please contact education@lms.ac.uk.
Further information about other new activities the Education Committee has been developing will be published in the LMS Newsletter in 2026.
