December 9-13th
Cohort 1 students spent the week together in Bristol participating in workshops, taking exams and enjoying the Christmas party. Managed to get a group shot of all but 1 of them wearing the infamous sapphire blue hoodies!
Welcome to our new QIST CDT cohort 1!
On 9th September 2024 we welcomed the first cohort of the new QIST CDT. During induction week we brought the students based at University of Bristol and those at the University of Sussex together for a team building event which included an overnight stay at Calshot Activity Centre in Southampton.
The first session of the day was team building games designed to break the ice and get us working as a team. This was followed by an introduction to the CDT including brainstorming sessions on the ‘Grand Cohort Challenge’ and a presentation from the CDT Director.
The centre and our accommodation had a great location right on the coast so after dinner we had a bonfire on the beach.
The following day we split into 2 groups, one doing archery and another using the climbing wall.
We were lucky with the weather and it was a great opportunity for the students and CDT staff to get to know each other. We’re looking forward to the year ahead!
