Work experience
Work experience can be an important aspect of a young student’s development, providing an insight into what research is like, and providing an opportunity to experience a university environment.
The Department of Physics currently provides and supports two work experience schemes, both aimed at students that are in year 12 and interested in studying physics at a university level. More information about the two schemes can be found below.
-
STEM Learning Research Placements give Year 12 students the opportunity to spend two weeks working independently on a live research project.
