What is the Student Reference Group?
The project is being overseen by a management group composed of students and staff from Information and Digital Services (IDS) and Student Life.
The Student Reference Group is a larger group of students (up to 15) with lived experience who can help support the project with their input. The group met 3-4 times in 2024 (in person or via Teams) and is expected to meet again in 2025 to provide input into research, solution design and testing.
The time and contribution of members will be acknowledged by the university with a gift voucher as a token of appreciation. Members can also apply for Horizon Award points for their contribution.
