Each year at STFC, we are proud to run a highly successful work experience programme online and in person at Daresbury Laboratroy, Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and Royal Observatory Edinburgh. During the 1-2 week long placement, students will work individually or in small groups with supervisors on a project rooted in STFC science and technology.

STFC Work Experience programmes are open to young people who are living in the UK and in full time education in Years 10-13 in England and Wales, S4-S6 in Scotland and Years 11-14 in Northern Ireland. Individual work experience programmes may have further eligibility requirements based on distance from STFC National Lab sites.

Applications for this summer’s placements are now closed. Please visit STFC’s work experience website for details on individual placements, application deadline and links.
