[Academic] FW: Nuffield Research Placements at Strathclyde

[physics-hod at strath.ac.uk]

Dear all,

Please consider if you can provide a two week STEM summer placement for an S5 school pupil from a disadvantaged background.  There is an online information session on 8th March.

Details below:

Help inspire the next generation of STEM professionals by hosting a Nuffield Research Placement this summer.

Nuffield Research Placements are an excellent opportunity for S5 students from disadvantaged backgrounds to take part in a two-week hands-on research experience with a STEM employer.

Hosting a placement involves providing the student with a research question, working with them to collect and analyse some data to answer that question and supporting them to produce a scientific report and poster to communicate their findings. Becoming a placement host not only gives young people invaluable skills and experiences, but it can develop your coaching, mentoring, and management skills while also potentially helping you to meet equality, diversity and inclusion, and widening access goals.

If you are interested in becoming a provider, please join us at our next online session for employers on 8th March at 4pm here: How to Provide a Successful Nuffield Research Placement Tickets, Wed 8 Mar 2023 at 16:00 | Eventbrite<https://eur02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.co.uk%2Fe%2Fhow-to-provide-a-successful-nuffield-research-placement-tickets-537299616617%3Faff%3Debdssbonlinesearch&data=05%7C01%7Cgabrielle.weir%40strath.ac.uk%7C66801c9d7a484fdf1cc708db09f367f0%7C631e0763153347eba5cd0457bee5944e%7C0%7C0%7C638114713552944920%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=vqOdfBoWMw4HOS0LmmwTSGB6K7xUP6aus0ykUVd6UH4%3D&reserved=0>
