Target groups: Sixth form Science and Engineering students
Nuffield Bursaries are opportunities for sixth form students to undertake science or engineering projects in a research environment.
The projects are challenging and designed to contribute to the achievement of the host organisation’s objectives, and significantly enhance the students’ skills and knowledge. The work is usually of a very high standard and in recent years two students have been the UK Young Scientist of the Year. |
