SCEPTrE believes that students are a fantastic resource and we want to help liberate and harness this untapped source or creative talent.
Student networkers are paid or voluntary members of our team who initiate conversations and develop ideas with and for students. We will be recruiting a new group of students in September 2008.
Last year's networkers created a poster to tell the University about the work they had been doing.
They undertook a range of enquiries, including a telephone interview project with teaching staff that was published as an evaluation report for SCEPTrE's steering group.
