Kevin Golden is a faculty member at the University of the West of England, serving as Dean and Head of School of Computing and Creative Technologies. He holds a PhD in applied mathematics and has a long-standing focus on mathematics education and curriculum innovation.
- Collaborations: London Mathematical Society, Institute of Mathematics and Its Applications, Heads of Departments of Mathematical Sciences (HoDoMS)
- Research: Problem-Based Learning, Technology-Enhanced Learning
- Teaching: Numerical Analysis, Financial Mathematics, Engineering Mathematics, Mathematical Applications
His work emphasizes integrating mathematical modelling into higher education curricula, promoting STEM education for disadvantaged learners, and enhancing mathematics education for engineers. He led a European Social Fund project to develop an e-assessment platform for numeracy-focused degree programs and contributed to the National HE STEM programme.
Kevin's recent publication explores the application of diagnostic tools and online resources to support non-specialist mathematics learners. He also participates in initiatives to promote teaching mathematics as a career path for graduates.
Grants & Projects:
- European Social Fund project to increase access to numerate disciplines via e-assessments and web-based materials
- National HE STEM programme projects on mathematical modelling for engineers
- Practice-based curriculum transformation at UWE as Academic Director for Engineering Design and Mathematics
