About the scheme
What is the criteria?
We are looking for passionate students from the department to join our team. No prior experience in events or social media is required—just a strong enthusiasm for outreach in psychology. If you are eager to make an impact and engage with the community, we want to hear from you.
How long does this scheme last?
This 8-week programme fits seamlessly into your term, requiring just a minimal time commitment of no more than 5 hours per week. This scheme is designed to work around your lectures and schedule, making it easy to balance with your other commitments.
What does the programme entail?
As part of a small, dynamic team, you will work on exciting projects that promote and showcase the work of our department. Projects vary each term but may include managing social media accounts, contributing to the departmental newsletter, or supporting the promotion and management of events.
Throughout the academic term, you could play a key role in organizing and advertising public talks, generating creative ideas and content for our social media platforms, or participating in outreach activities that engage schoolchildren with the fascinating world of psychology and its real-world impact.
How do I benefit from this scheme?
You will gain valuable experience in teamwork, project management, and communication (including digital media), while also deepening your understanding of outreach, research promotion, and strategies for engaging diverse audiences.
