Discipline Hopping Secondments
One element of the Bridging the Gaps programme is fully-funded discipline hopping secondments, which enable academic staff to spend time in another Department within the University pursuing or initiating collaborative research. Funding is provided to the applicant´s own Department to cover their normal duties (see Annex A for full details of the financial arrangements).
Secondments can be of any duration up to 3 months (or one complete semester if appropriate). These secondments are intended to be a short-form version of the established Discipline Hopping fellowships which have been offered by various research councils.

Eligibility
There is a strong emphasis in the Bridging the Gaps programme on collaborative research between the discipline areas of Engineering, Mathematics and ICT. With this in mind, preference will be given to secondments between Departments whose activities span at least two of the three discipline areas.
