Students will have the chance to work on extended projects (EPQs) that will explore topics such as how to reduce carbon emissions, how to improve public transport systems, how to design accessible vehicles, and how to use data analytics to optimise efficiency and quality. These projects will not only enhance their academic performance, but also develop their creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills.
We are extremely grateful to the Ford Fund for supporting us in this initiative and for sharing their expertise and resources with us. We believe that this is a great way to inspire our students and prepare them for their future careers in the rapidly evolving sectors of advanced manufacturing within the city region. We look forward to working with them and seeing the amazing outcomes of our students' projects.
