What are we looking for?

We’re especially interested in content that shows your area of study in action, but we also welcome content about wider student life at Kent.

You can choose to create one short piece of content from the following, but we’d love to hear your ideas too:

Day in the life...

Give a snapshot of what a typical day looks like for you as a Kent student. For example:

A realistic timeline of your day (lectures, study time, breaks, social life)
What you actually do in a day on your course
Balancing uni work, part-time jobs, and downtime
Behind-the-scenes moments (commuting, coffee runs, library sessions, societies)
What a busy day vs a lighter day looks like.

Project or coursework breakdown

Show a real piece of work you’ve completed and explain it to a prospective student. That could be:

A project from start to finish (brief, process, outcome)
A portfolio piece and the skills behind it
How you approached an essay or assignment
Your role in a group project and what you contributed
Skills and practical work in action.

How you apply what you learn in your subject

For example:

Using lab equipment, studio tools, or specialist software
A step-by-step look at how you solve a subject-related task
What a seminar, workshop, or practical session involves

5 things I’ve learnt.

Key takeaways from your course so far

Such as:

5 skills you’ve gained in your subject
5 concepts that changed how you think about your field

Facilities and learning spaces

Show where you study and how you use university spaces. Some examples:

Labs, studios, workshops, or specialist facilities in action
