Student Life

Student life can be very rewarding, but it can also have its pitfalls.

Student Action Plan

If you are on the brink of choosing a degree course, this Action Plan will help you to make the most of your university years, even if you are not yet sure of your career.

In the future you will need the skills to manage a varied career and to be an effective learner. These are the skills which will allow you to develop and make use of your own individual strengths. They could easily be called "enabling skills" because they will enable you to be effective in managing your work and its relationship with the rest of life. They will put you in charge, instead of being at the mercy of your work.

The task is not impossible. There are simple things you can do to develop these Self-Reliance skills. The Action Plan lists a number of things suggested by employers and academics, which can be done to make the most of the opportunities which exist at university to develop these skills.

Increase your self-awareness

List your strengths and weaknesses. Use others to help. Continually update the list.
Actively seek feedback from colleagues, staff, close friends and family. Get outside your comfort zone!
Notice which experiences really motivate you. Write them down.
Make an effort to establish your values and underlying beliefs. You will not be comfortable if you do things which work against these values.
