Staff-Student Committee
Our Staff-Student Committee was established as a way for students to feed their ideas back to the DTP management, acting as a voice for the cohort, as well as providing opportunities for social interaction and collaboration.
Student feedback is key to shaping our strategy for the SSCP DTP.
The committee consists of student representatives, the DTP Administration team. The committee meet quaterly to review programme content and arrange social events, training courses as well as welfare initiatives.
