improve the students’ experience on campus.

This study-unit will be on offer again during the current academic year. This optional study-unit will combine experiential learning with active reflection on that learning. The aim of this study-unit is to facilitate student participation in a number of meetings within University structures as well as student participation in Senate-recognised Student Societies and the development of interpersonal and group skills.

The Seminars will be held on 13 October 2021, 27 October 2021, 10 November 2021 and 24 November 2021 between 12:00-14:00 by Professor Mary Anne Lauri and Ms Carmen Mangion. Venue to be announced.
