Thea R Morgan is a Senior Lecturer at the University of Bristol, specializing in engineering design education and pedagogical approaches that foster experiential learning and reflection. Her research emphasizes the importance of project-based learning (PBL) in engineering design, aiming to enable students to construct new knowledge and reflect on their lived experiences. Morgan's work identifies the influence of cognitive structures on students' engineering learning experiences, particularly under different paradigms, such as positivism and constructivism. She explores the barriers that may hinder students from engaging with experiential learning and seeks to develop strategies that encourage reflexivity in their design practices.
Department of Physics research themes include Astrophysics, Materials and Devices, Particle Physics, and Quantum and Soft Matter.
