Virtual event

The Futures Project is a distinctive part of every Edinburgh degree, a chance to explore a topic that matters to you, in a way that brings together research, creativity, and purpose.

This session will introduce the ethos behind the Futures Project, share examples of what past students have explored, and offer space for reflection on what you might want to investigate in your own project.

We’ll talk about how projects are chosen, the support available, and how students work with academics and partners to shape something meaningful. The session is a direct response to questions we often hear from offer holders, and a chance to see how we co-create your journey from the very beginning.

Why attend?

  • Find out what the Futures Project involves and how it works
  • Hear examples of past projects and what’s possible
  • Start thinking about the questions or ideas you want to explore at EFI

Come along to explore how your own questions could turn into impact.
