SULSA Undergradute Work Placements
Funding is now available for companies to provide one-year industry work
placements to life sciences students at Scottish universities. Up to 20
part-funded placements are available to start in summer 2010.
The scheme, which is coordinated by the Scottish Universities Life Sciences
Alliance (SULSA) and supported by a grant from the Scottish Funding
Council’s Horizon Fund aims to provide students with real life work
experience and commercial lab skills that will improve their employment
prospects.
The placements are full time for 12 months. Half of the student salary will
be covered by the scheme (up to £7,500) and the other half by the company.
The scheme is open to undergraduate honours students between their 3rd and
4th years who are studying for biological or biomedical degrees at one of
the SULSA universities (Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Glasgow, St Andrews or
Strathclyde).
A full explanation of the scheme is available on SULSA website:
www.sulsa.ac.uk/placements .
Companies and students interested in participating in the scheme are
encouraged to contact:
