Students are working alongside Birmingham City Council’s Housing Regeneration and Development Department to support strategic planning.
As part of the inter-professional project, which requires third-year students to undertake research for an industry client, students have been carrying out research for the council under the guidance of their tutors. This particular project has been running for two years, and the Council has confirmed that students’ findings have highlighted issues not previously considered – these recommendations are now being implemented within the Council, and are being used to inform its current and future policies.
