Abstract

In recent years, the work of the Higher Education Academy (HEA) at discipline level has been delivered through a network of subject centres located in universities. In the case of Mathematics, Statistics and Operational Research (MSOR), this subject centre has been the HEA MSOR Network. As part of a major restructuring in 2010/11 the HEA decided to deliver discipline specific work centrally rather than through subject centres. Subsequently Discipline Leads were appointed for each discipline and transition funding was made available to subject centres, who wished to continue into 2011/12. Consequently 2011/12 has been a transition year during which the MSOR Network has been continuing with its activities, while at the same time the HEA MSOR discipline has been establishing itself within the HEA STEM cluster. This overlap period has enabled dialogue to take place which should ensure that work in the HEA MSOR discipline is well informed by a thorough understanding of the work which was undertaken by the MSOR Network in the past.
