[Academic] Summer projects for undergraduates - update (Royce & Rank Prize schemes)

[Gordon Robb]

A couple of notices regarding undergraduate summer projects/internships which may be of interest :


- The Henry Royce Institute (of which Strathclyde is an associate partner) has issued a call for summer projects/internships in 2025 (thanks to Carol for flagging this)


https://www.royce.ac.uk/internship-scheme/internship-2025/


The 2025 scheme covers projects that fall under the following categories:

  *   Research projects: Royce support for projects led by post-doctoral and early-career researchers. These projects should involve novel research, innovation, and experimentation in materials science.
  *   Technical projects: Royce support for projects led by a member of technical or experimental staff. These projects should explore the development of kit, facilities, and techniques, or focus on the delivery of experimental research services.
  *
Outreach projects: Royce support for projects led by academics, technical or professional staff. These projects should lead on the development of schools’ outreach, science communication, or public engagement activities in materials science.

Deadline : 20th January 2025

Applications are made by staff and then successful applications advertised to students. If interested, please get in touch.


- Also, please note that the deadline for the Rank Prize summer project scheme is 20th January 2025 - this is significantly earlier than in previous years. Details at
