In this episode we speak with Juan Rayón González about the Student Partnerships Initiative; a dynamic programme designed to support students who want to implement innovative, co-creative, and collaborative projects across INGENIUM. In this conversation, Juan tells us about the initiative, about how students have engaged with it so far, the role of the student board, and the real-world skills, confidence, and learning outcomes it fosters.
