  1. Work-Based LearningHE-STEM UPSKILL ProjectProfessor K Alan ShoreBangor UniversitySchool of Electronic Engineering

  2. Outline • UPSKILL Definition • Approach to Learning • Background : Photonics Academy of Wales @ Bangor ( PAWB)/Road Testing • Implementation for industry • Towards Sustainability

  3. Project • UPSKILL : User-driven Photonics Skills Improvement via Life-long Learning Using Photonics as the Enabling Technology to inspire an enthusiasm for all STEM concepts

  4. Approach to Learning • Challenge-based : use a characteristic of light to devise a novel photonics device of societal benefit • Hands-on : design and build • Start with the Solutions, not the problems

  5. Background :AcademiFfotonegCymru@ Bangor Photonics Academy of Wales@ Bangor (PAWB) • Photonics Academy Summer School (PASS) - SPIE Education Outreach Award • EUSPEN Challenge 2011: Cambridge University • Work Experience Opportunities WIMCS

  13. UPSKILL Implementation • “Ingenuity in Light in Control” 3-Day Photonics Master Class Design Solutions Opportunities for Company Staff and FE Engineering Students : MAGNOX, Qioptiq • “LENS (Light Enabling Novel Solutions)” – a 1-Day Photonics Design Solution Opportunity : FIVE Individual Days were specified as being available for Potential LENS Design Opportunities – to suit Companies/Colleges; Qioptiq, Deeside College Delivery by reservation – but available on demand

  14. UPSKILL Implementation • Technocamps Workshop Day for 16–19 year old Engineering Students – ColegLlandrillo • MAGNOX Nuclear Power StationCelebration Day for STEM Ambassadors, Wylfa, Anglesey • ( Post-project ) Photonics Academy Summer School (PASS) 2012

  15. Towards Sustainability : Levels 3 and 4 • Optics and Photonics Up-Skilling for Industry (OPUS) : Work-Based Learning • Technicians in Optoelectronics • Foundation Degree in Photonics [with Llandrillo and Deeside Colleges]

  16. Towards Sustainability – and beyond • CAMPUS : Capability Matrix for Photonics Upskilling • IMPETUS : Industrially Mediated Photonics Education Training and Up-Skilling

  17. Towards Sustainability – EU • EU Photonics21 • Photonics in Life and Medical Sciences (PHILMS) Marie-Curie ITN : SMEs + HEIs
