T Level Students Explore Careers at Sheffield Hallam University

On Wednesday 17th March, T Level students in Design, Surveying, and Planning (DSP) students visited Sheffield Hallam University (SHU) for a Built Environment taster day.

Students explored these careers first-hand, taking part in practical workshops that brought the construction industry to life. Hands-on surveying activities and digital design sessions provided them with a real insight into the skills and knowledge required in the sector.

One of the activities included creating 3D paper craft architectural models using various objects.

A guided tour of the SHU’s state-of-the-art facilities offered a glimpse into student life. Speaking with current undergraduates gave students valuable insights into the courses on offer and the pathways available.

“It was a brilliant opportunity to experience university level learning and see what career options are out there,” said one student.

Inspired by the experience, many students are now considering university courses or related apprenticeships in construction and built environment careers.
