Working with Scotland’s Universities
Scottish Universities have been involved in delivering all aspects of CREW during the first year of operation including:
• CREW co-ordination • MASTS provide the administrative conduit to the HEI sector
• CREW project scoping• through HEI networks: MASTS, Telford Institute, SAGES, and IHP-HELP Dundee
• Research projects• Capacity building projects have included Heriot-Watt, Stirling, Dundee, St Andrews and UHI
• Call down service for advice –• Dundee, Heriot-Watt and St Andrews University have all provided experts so far
The CREW Register of Expertise (open to all) aims to facilitate access to a wider expert base from more Universities in the future http://www.crew.ac.uk/get-involved
