Biography
Dr Camila Devis-Rozental is a Principal academic in Socio-emotional intelligence (SEI) and humanising practice at Bournemouth University.
In her current role, she has been involved in various projects university wide. At present, she has been working alongside colleagues on developing the university's Access and Participation Plan and she is leading one of its intervention strategies.
Additionally, she is applying her expertise and research in humanising practice and social justice to develop projects to continue improving the academic quality of our programmes and the student experience university wide.
Camila is the recipient of various grants and multiple awards. In 2022 and 2023 she was included in the Disability Power 100. This list recognises the 100 most influential disabled people in the UK, and Camila has been included in recognition of her work in humanising education, as one of the top 10 people within the education category.
In 2022 she led a research project funded by ODHE (Organisational Development in Higher Education) with various universities exploring Communities of Practice (CoPs)...
Camila has over 20 years of experience in the field of education with a focus on humanising education. She is interested in metacognition and how prosocial behaviours, emotions and social interactions affect teaching and learning.
In 2019 alongside Susanne Clarke (Head of Service Excellence), Camila was recognised for this work and was awarded the Vice Chancellor's Award for creativity due to the innovative ways in which service excellence is embedded across BU, including our digital resources.
As part of this project, Camila adapted the Humanising framework developed by Todres et al. originally for health and social sciences, into a tool for humanising higher education. Additionally, the head, hand, heart plaid which she developed as part of her doctoral work to illustrate practicing with an embodied relational understanding has been built in as part of BU's organisational culture.
As part of her role in the Business School Camila supervises PhD and Masters students and she is involved in research on positive organisational culture, EDI and learning gain alongside colleagues in the school.
She is a Senior Fellow, mentor and reviewer for Advance HE and a Professional Affiliate of the Chartered College of Teaching.
Camila is the author of various journal articles, chapters and books, and she has presented her work at multiple national and international conferences.
She was awarded the BU Learning and Teaching Fellowship to develop her research entitled: Mind the Gap: supporting students to have a successful transition from school to university, enhancing the current provision and further strengthening the support given to both students and academics to develop areas of SEI to enhance overall wellbeing. Following this she was awarded a grant to create digital resources for pre-arrival students to support them in their transition to university, developed with the aim of humanising our digital spaces.
Externally Camila is director and trustee of the Lightyear Foundation, a charity breaking barriers for disabled children interested in STEM. She is also the wellness expert adviser of the Diocese of Salisbury Academy Trust supporting over 26 schools to enhance staff and students' wellbeing and she sits on various, equity, diversity and inclusion committees both at BU and externally.
Camila is always happy to connect with others interested in her research.
