🤔 How will DiveIn enable Project Co-Creation? 👉The process of forming interdisciplinary teams and projects is enabled through a series of events, facilitated by Knowinnovation: 🔹 The Lido 🗣️ 🔹 The Splash Pool ✍ 🔹 Project Shape Up & Industrial Showcase 💡 #DiveInCDT #EPSRC #PhD #CDT #Research #STEM

The Lido, Beginning of September; The Lido will bring together the pool of supervisors and students, and will have two objectives:
1. develop the skills and confidence of both groups to undertake collaborative, interdisciplinary research.
2. generate a compelling series of problem statements that reflect the interests, curiosity and expertise of the participants.
A shortlist of supervisors will be selected by the students, the supervisors and the management team.

The Splash Pool, End of September; Students team up with two or more academic supervisors and together, they craft the blueprint of their research projects.
Through fully facilitated open dialogue, collaboration, and mentorship from invited interdisciplinary provocateurs and mentors, the Splash Pool supports project teams in shaping proposals with a clear interdisciplinary focus, poised to make impactful contributions to the mission-inspired themes.

Project Shape Up, October -December
Project teams develop proposals with regular catch-ups and updates to the cohort.
Students pitch their emerging projects to DiveIn's external partners.
Partners have an opportunity to steer projects with problem-based questions.
DiveIn Management curates feedback sessions, quality checks, and approval of proposals by the end of the period
