A group of students sitting around a desk in an academic English class talk to a teacher

Every student and staff member engaging on a StudentShapers project brings their different backgrounds and perspectives, resulting in a wealth of diverse insights once they have completed this partnership. 

We have welcomed staff and student partners to share their personal experiences of navigating their expectations and hopes for their projects, as well as the resulting outcomes, skills and knowledge they gained.
