What is AA?

Attributes & Aspirations is an interactive, practical, flexible online short designed to support your skills development, make you a better student, and help you advance your career. It was created based on research into the skills employers and PhD programmes look for, so you can be sure they are the skills that you will need in your future.
AA will introduce you to Imperial and what university learning will be like. You can then choose from a range of skills to develop including communication, teamworking, and time management.
AA is not compulsory, and you do not need to complete it all. By enrolling on AA:

  • You can develop key skills that will help with your studies and in your future
  • You will receive a certificate for each module you complete
