Additional Information:
All projects will require significant periods of laboratory work at an external placement provider. The working hours are Monday-Friday between 9 and 5pm for 12 weeks (a total of 420 hours).
Students will be assigned external supervisors from the placement provider and an internal supervisor from LJMU. There will be three 'checkpoint' meetings (30 minutes in duration) during the course of the 12 week placement. These will be at the start, midway through and at the end of the placement period (the exact timings will be agreed between the external and internal supervisors).
Appropriate references for each particular project will be provided for the student. The duration of the oral presentation is 30 minutes, including questioning by the external and internal supervisors and members of the placement providers research team.
