Year 12: Apply for a Nuffield Research Placement!
Applications for Nuffield Research Placements (NRPs) are now open!
STEM Learning is now in its third year of delivering this highly regarded and prestigious programme thanks to ongoing funding from the Nuffield Foundation and support from UK Research and Innovation.
The Nuffield Research Placements programme provides engaging, hands-on research projects, where Year 12 students have the opportunity to make a meaningful contribution towards the work of a host organisation through a well-supervised but independent research collaboration relating to an area of science, quantitative social science, computing, technology, engineering or maths (or a combination!).
As your Nuffield Coordinator for the North West, Team All About STEM would like to encourage Year 12 students to start their application today for their chance to be part of this long-standing and impactful programme.
For full national programme information, please visit the STEM Learning website. This will provide further details for students wishing to apply to take part, teachers planning to promote the programme in their school/college and organisations interested in hosting placements.
Nuffield Research and Experience Placements in the North West
Although a national programme, Nuffield Research and Experience Placements are managed by a network of regional coordinators. This means there can be slight differences, for example with application submission dates, in how the programme runs in each area.
For information specific to our North West region, please click below:
*The North West application submission deadline date is 29th February 2024*
All About STEM works on lots of exciting STEM projects. As part of the STEM Learning family, we are Nuffield Research Placements Coordinator for the North West and a STEM Ambassadors Partner supporting the National STEM Ambassadors Programme via the STEM Ambassadors Community.
