WHAT IS PROJECT BASED LEARNING?
Project-based learning is a teaching method that enables students to learn through experience by tackling a wide variety of real-world challenges and projects. It emphasizes learning activities that are long-term, often team-based, interdisciplinary, and student-centered. It is designed to help our students acquire a deeper understanding of their subject by taking the theory that is learned in the lecture theatre and providing an opportunity to put it into practice through experimentation.
I find that Queen’s focus is not just on producing students who can study, but more on ensuring well rounded young professionals enter the working world. My course has provided a space to discover what I enjoy personally about engineering. Ben Whittaker
