Abstract
There is an extensive body of work that explores the transformative power of co-creation of curriculum in learning and teaching with students as partners. This article builds on the existing research but focuses on the co-curricular activities as a lesser explored aspect of the student experience in co-creation literature. We employ the concepts of liminality and third space initiated with students between 2020-2023. We argue that the flexibility afforded through non-curricular activities produces an under-utilised space for participants, stimulating new ways of interdisciplinary thinking, exploration, and creative outputs. In doing so, such projects can be powerful mechanisms to shape/inform staff and student experience of what university learning should be about.
