Study abroad or Placement

Apply to study abroad – you’ll develop an international perspective and gain an edge when it comes to your career.

Each summer throughout your degree you can apply for a research placement, based in the School of Life Sciences. Research placements are stimulating intellectual challenges and great practical experiences.

You work on cutting-edge neuroscience projects, hone your research skills, and take the first steps toward a research-based career. During the summer research placements, you receive funding to cover your living expenses.
