Student Portfolio Up for Sale
15th Jan 2021
The University of Oxford is to provide 60 paid research internships this summer, with projects offered in a range of subjects including physics, biochemistry, mathematics, geography and English literature.
The programmes will offer around twice as many UK students from under-represented groups the opportunity to experience postgraduate research through fully paid internships.
The internships will be available to those who would find postgraduate study a challenge because of socio-economic or financial circumstances.
David Gavaghan, Professor of Computational Biology and Director of the MPLS Graduate School, said: "The University's success derives from its community of outstanding researchers and the world-leading research environment that supports them. We are really excited to be able to invite students from under-represented backgrounds to join this community for the summer and to experience this world-leading environment through UNIQ+. There is no typical Oxford experience or typical Oxford student. We want everyone who could benefit from our doctoral research programmes to consider us."
The programme follows on from a successful pilot in 2019 which saw 33 students from all over the UK take part.
Participants will be paid around £2,500 and offered free accommodation provided by Oxford's colleges for the duration of the seven-week programme.
