For the first time, University of Galway undergraduate students are being offered the chance to take part in a Design Your Life module within the curriculum.
Using Stanford University California’s Design Your Life methodology, this module will help students develop their skills and figure out what their interests, talents and curiosities are, and envision what their future work life might be. As well as professional insight, this new module will give students the concepts and skills to support their personal, emotional and physical wellbeing, helpful in navigating life at college and after graduation.
This module will be run by Dr Tony Hall, School of Education and Designing Futures Success Coaches Larissa Lamb and Denise McBride.
