The Bridge works actively with a wide range of individuals, businesses, and community groups in a variety of Knowledge Exchange activities. We have been working with a team of Student Ambassadors to write the below case studies, showcasing the fantastic projects happening through the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Business and supporting our students' personal and professional development.

Nurturing student talent

“This scheme was a great way for me to connect with so many different individuals that I was unlikely to get in touch with without it. It really helped develop both my social and professional skills, especially when conducting interviews or even when being interviewed myself.”
Farah Amer, case study writer and University of Plymouth student.

Knowledge Exchange

We use Knowledge Exchange as a key mechanism for driving the Faculty’s engagement with the outside world; harnessing the creative and intellectual talent that resides within our students and staff in a way which is of maximum benefit to anyone engaging with us.
