University College Projects

At University College, we’re building a culture where trying, testing, and learning are part of the job. Our team pilots new approaches to student success — not just in theory, but in practice — drawing on the ideas and energy of the people closest to the work. Every project is a chance to learn, adapt, and build a better experience for students.
