Professional Competencies are an essential part of the skills that employers expect from our graduates. They are covered in Imperial's Graduate Attributes, and can be part of the requirements from accredited degrees by some professional bodies. Even though these competencies will vary between faculties, there is a shared communality in terms of desired graduate outcomes and student experience. The purpose of this SIG is to provide a discussion forum for the exchange of ideas and initiatives, creating opportunities cross-disciplinary collaboration.  

This year, the SIG is co-led by:

  • Zohaib Akhtar (Senior Teaching Fellow - Faculty of Engineering)
  • Deesha Chadha (Sennior Strategic Teaching Fellow - Faculty of Engineering)
  • Sharan Dhaliwal (Learning Technologist - Faculty of Medicine Centre
