Student Forum

Student representation is a key part of the governance of the WRDTP. Student representatives help to inform the provision that the DTP offers. They provide a point of contact for, and advocate on the part of, their fellow students. The Student Forum assists in informing the operations and development of the WRDTP. The Forum is chaired by the WRDTP Director and feeds into the governance structure via the WRDTP’s Training Group and Academic Quality Committee.
