Be Future Focused - Manifest your next move

This is the summer of YOU. Whether you’re graduating or coming back in the autumn, now is the perfect time to start thinking about what’s next.

We’ve got a whole lineup to help you get inspired and stay future-focused — from a game that predicts your path, to a garden party celebrating how far you’ve come (and where you’re headed).

Glow Up: Invest in Future You Edition is also back by popular demand, and we’re closing it all out with a full-on Festival of Innovation. 

Don’t miss out on free goodies, hearing from awe-inspiring alumni and ultimately the chance to impact your future.  

Game of Future You

Our special 125 Game of Future You is here! Instructions on joining can be found below.

 

Game Access

Our game on ThingLink is available using normal University credentials via Single Sign On.

My Attributes

It's hard to appreciate just how far you’ve come without giving yourself time to reflect. If you completed My Attributes earlier this year, it’s the perfect time to update it and see how many skills you’ve gained over the last few months. If you haven’t done it before, why not start now! Reflect, set your goals and get ready for your future.
