Project Details
Description
This project involves the design, coordination, and delivery of a four-part Personal Development Workshop (PDW) series tailored to second-year engineering students. Aimed at supporting overarching student development, the workshops were structured to address both academic and non-academic needs, with a strong focus on employability, self-management, and student-staff engagement.
Based on student feedback and departmental goals, the PDW themes were:
- Academic Success Toolkit
- Landing Internships & Building Employability
- Personal Development & Wellbeing
- Career Planning & Hidden Pathways
The workshop series was designed to be interactive and student-centered, incorporating activities such as peer-led CV reviews, live Q&A panels with staff and alumni, academic skill-building exercises, and reflection-based wellbeing tasks. A strong emphasis was placed on practical, transferable skills and early career awareness. For this project, I oversaw the early development of the workshop content and structure, and managed a team of two interns who developed supporting materials and engagement activities. This collaborative approach enabled the co-creation of student resources with direct input from the students themselves.
