OPEN MIND Studios are week-long programmes for Transition Year students which aim to highlight the rich network of interconnections between science, the arts, culture, design, business and innovation.
These programmes give students the opportunity to develop 21st Century skills - creativity, critical thinking, collaboration and communication. The workshop sessions also offer the opportunity for students to interact with leading researchers, entrepreneurs and creative individuals and get an insight into the exciting career possibilities in these fields.
