Applications for the 2025 Student Internship Scheme are now open.
Royce helps to support researchers in hosting an undergraduate student intern at their institution to complete a summer project in materials science.
This year Royce will support applications for projects that cover materials research, technical development and equipment enhancement, and outreach or public engagement activities. The wider scope of the scheme offers internships a greater chance to explore pathways after the completion of their undergraduate degree and before they begin to make choices on career direction.
Overview
The scheme provides support for researchers or technical or outreach staff in HEIs to enable undergraduate students to participate in a summer internship project in materials science. This support is available to host an intern within a university core facility, department or academic group. Projects are expected to run for a maximum of 35 hours a week over 8 weeks in the summer between June and September 2025.
Applications will be reviewed by the Royce Training Team and successful bids will be awarded based on the following criteria:
- Strength of project proposal
- Relevance to Royce research areas
- Benefit to the student
- Benefit to the mentor or host laboratory
