Before you graduate, build the proof that speaks louder than your CV.
You join a working unit, shaped like a small startup. You take on a clear role. Marketing, research, development, outreach.
Those roles shift. You wear different hats depending on what the project demands.
You run a six-week cycle. You gather insight through surveys, interviews, and field research.
You test ideas, build pilots, and make decisions with real constraints.
You present, document, and reflect as a unit. You leave with work you were responsible for. Fully.
You'll have delivered something useful, specific, and documented.
You'll be able to talk clearly about what you did, why it mattered, and what you learned.
You'll gain experience working across functions, adapting to needs, and making decisions.
You'll build confidence through action. Not theory.
Impact Lab is officially registered with ARU Students' Union.
Our internal plans and documents are in place and still being refined.
We're preparing for the first cycle, the Discovery Sprint, launching October 2025.
We're actively speaking with students, testing interest, and gaining early traction through direct conversations.
This is for students who want to build something real while they're still here.
For those who learn best by trying, even when they're not sure where to start.
For anyone who feels stuck, but knows they want to do more.
It's not for spectators. It's for people who show up, take responsibility, and figure things out along the way.
Don't graduate with just grades. Graduate with proof of what you can do.
First cycle launches October 2025
We don't have anything planned right now but check back soon!
