About this event

  • 6 hours

Queen Mary University of London (QMUL) invites you to a day of sharing insights and building a community of practice for Student Knowledge Exchange activity in higher education.

Student Knowledge Exchange is a growing field within the HE sector, with clear benefits such as improving student employability and providing support for local businesses and communities.

SKETCH (Student Knowledge Exchange Community Hubs) is a student knowledge exchange programme at QMUL which spans the disciplines of law, business, economics and computer science, with connections to our careers service.

SKETCH students work directly with local businesses, individuals and community partners to solve real-world problems, by delivering services such as workshops, training, advisory clinics and consultancy-style projects.

This event will feature interactive sessions from our student knowledge exchange practitioners, who will share their expertise and invite responses from others involved in the field. These sessions will feature alongside presentations from students who have taken part in QMUL's SKETCH programme.

This event is open to Professional Services and Academic staff at HEIs currently delivering or interested in delivering student knowledge exchange activities.

More details on the agenda to follow.
