    Working as a team and planning ahead gives your group the best chance to succeed

    Group projects are common at university. Working together effectively means everyone contributes to your assignment and your contributions are valued by your team. 

    Here you'll find information on working in groups, making the most out of your seminars, understanding your team, and keeping your work professional. Successful group work improves your social skills and communication, and can help you explore your project from a new perspective.
