Research Project in London

Project type

Research

Role

Student Researcher

Date

May 2024 to July 2024

Location

Somers Town, London, England

As the main focus of my IQP (Interactive Qualifying Project) at Worcester Polytechnic Institute, I worked closely with 3 other students to develop a formal project proposal on behalf of the People’s Museum, a small museum located near the center of London. Our primary responsibility was testing and marketing the "Story Bike", a passenger cargo bike capable of transporting elderly and less mobile residents around the area. We conducted research and interviews in the local community, led multiple test drives, attended public events, met with several companies for sponsorship, and employed various marketing strategies to increase public interest.

More information about the project, including links to our final report and presentation, can be found here: https://wp.wpi.edu/london/projects/2024-projects-summer/peoples-museum/
