University to put in pilot teaching session (8)
I believe the answer is:
tutorial
'teaching session' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'university to put in pilot' is the wordplay.
'university' becomes 'u'.
'put in' indicates putting letters inside.
'pilot' becomes 'trial' ('trial' can be a synonym of 'pilot'**).
'u'+'to'='uto'
'uto' inserted into 'trial' is 'TUTORIAL'.
(Other definitions for tutorial that I've seen before include "Seminar" , "Class" , "University study period" , "Personal teaching session" , "Teaching session for a small number of students" .)
