About Grace Houghton

I’m a first-year Economics student at the University of Leeds, with a strong interest in economic inequalities and development. 

My research focuses on the Leeds University Business School Skills Maps - a visual representation of the skills that the student’s course is equipping them with. I will be investigating how these skills maps can be made more accessible and better aid students in the articulation of their transferable skills, hopefully enhancing graduate prospects.

Outside of my studies, I enjoy live music and exploring new things, whether it be a place, form of fitness, or a food spot.
