Summer of 360 is a 2023 project for Geography and Urban Studies & Planning students to help build a library of 360 content.  By taking part you can build on your existing digital and employability skills, while helping create content that can be used in future teaching and marketing opportunities in your department. No prior knowledge or equipment is required as everything will be provided. As a reward for your involvement, we will give you a choice of an Amazon or Beanies £20 voucher when you contribute images or videos.
