About the scholarship
If you're in third-year or above, interested and skilled in research, you could spend the summer supporting a research project and earn a valuable scholarship. The Summer Research Scholarship Programme offers a unique opportunity for external organisations, academics, and students to collaborate in research. Working with globally recognised researchers in a local setting, students gain valuable real-world experience and insight into what research is all about. Depending on the project, students can gain experience and skills in data collection, data analysis, literature reviews, or interviewing techniques. They may learn to use specialised software or acquire specialist skills in the laboratory.
