Research Project in London

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.
