The Centre for Public Health Summer Research Programme provides a unique opportunity for undergraduate students to participate in non and laboratory-based research during the summer months.  Each participant will be assigned to the research project of a Principal Investigator and will work as part of an enthusiastic research team comprising postdoctoral fellows, research assistants, PhD students and technicians.  The projects will run for an eight-week period between June and September 2013 and students will work  Monday to Friday on a full-time basis.

Students currently enrolled for Biomedical Sciences, Medicine, Dentistry or a related discipline who have completed at least one year of full-time study are eligible to apply.  Each summer studentship typically pays a student stipend of £150 per week.  All successful applicants will automatically be considered for a studentship.

The application process is now open.  Please submit a current CV including your full academic profile (or transcript), a covering letter stating your reasons for applying to the Programme and the names and contact details of two referees.  Please email your application to the Centre Manager, Niamh McElherron – N.McElherron@qub.ac.uk by 5.00pm on Thursday 28th February 2013.
