Hear from some of our graduates on what they thought about their industrial placements.

Ryan Treadwell

My summer placement was an invaluable experience that not only led to employment, but provided me with a platform to demonstrate my skills.

Charlotte Tembo

I thoroughly enjoyed my summer placement as I was lucky to secure a placement in which my assigned project really interests me. I learned so much information and techniques which I know will make me a more well-rounded scientist.
'The IBioIC industrial placement gave me the confidence to develop an independent approach to experimental design on real-world bio-based applications.’
