Knowledge Transfer Network: Bradford Business Challenge Webinar

About

Free online event.

The University of Bradford, School of Management has been running Bradford Business Challenge student projects for a number of years.

We are currently looking for projects for our final year undergraduate students that they can commence in the new academic year (from October onwards). This online workshop will provide an overview of the project process and best practice. Offer opportunities for business to ask questions about projects and will allow for real time development of project ideas in consultation with academic experts from the school.

This event aims to introduce you to Bradford Business Challenge via a webinar and provide you with insight into the process of undertaking a project. You will have the opportunity to ask questions, gain insight into project types and opportunities and work with our expert academics to develop your ideas.

What is Bradford Business Challenge?
Bradford Business Challenge projects are undertaken by students with the support and guidance of our academic experts in collaboration with local organisations to identify and co-create solutions for real business and organisational challenges.

The programme supports both our students and local businesses and organisations. The organisation receives a solution to a challenge through consultancy work using a structured, evident-based academic approach, undertaken by the student and supported by their academic advisor who is a subject expert and experienced in applied research and working with students to support businesses in this way. Examples of our expert faculty who contribute to the programme are included below.

Through these projects our students get to engage with real-world issues and apply their knowledge to make an impact to the communities, whilst developing skills and competency for employability.
