What is SKETCH? 

SKETCH is Queen Mary’s student knowledge exchange programme. Our students work directly with local businesses, individuals and community partners to solve real-world problems, by delivering services such as workshops, training, advisory clinics and consultancy-style projects. 


The programme has four guiding principles:

Student employability

Boosting employability outcomes for our students and providing organisations with access to future talent.

Interdisciplinarity

Providing students with high-level skills development and organisations access to complex problem-solving. 

Inclusivity

Enabling access and opportunities for a diverse pool of students and organisations.

Local-rootedness

Supporting the local East London community and beyond.
