Visit this articleWelcome to a new year and the latest issue of our Relevant Research e-magazine. At this time of year we are seeking a range of real world research projects for our students to undertake. Please let us know if you have an idea that we might be able to help you with. We hope the stories in this issue will give you some ideas of the breadth of work they can do.
Our workSpace facility has been reviewed and is being refocused into a staff and student education/research resource, rather than the primarily commercially focused operation it has been. As well as launching the careers of many of our graduates workSpace has provided innovative solutions to meet a wide range of client needs. Over the last five years the team has done 4000 jobs for 400 clients. We wish Eva Gluyas and Lynda Henderson well for their future endeavours.
