As a sandwich student, you'll benefit from the Crick's well-resourced research labs and state-of-the-art facilities. You'll be provided with a supportive and stimulating work environment and receive training in scientific and transferable skills.The sandwich student programme starts with an induction to the Crick, including how to work in our laboratories and how to work with each other. During the placement year, you'll attend internal and external seminars and take part in scientific and professional development training. Towards the end of the programme, we'll help you develop your scientific presentation skills before you present your work at a Crick sandwich student symposium.

Applicants must:

• be registered at a UK university, and studying in the UK for an undergraduate degree in a relevant discipline
• be in their second year of undergraduate study if at a university in England, Wales, Northern Ireland or third year if at a university in Scotland; and have at least one further year of undergraduate study to complete after the placement year
• be studying on an undergraduate programme for which a sandwich/industrial placement year is a formal part of the degree, or must be able to demonstrate that they may interrupt their studies for 12 months to undertake a placement
• have the legal right to work in the UK. International students studying full time in the UK at UK universities may apply, provided they can demonstrate that undertaking a sandwich/industrial placement year is a formal part of their undergraduate programme and that their student visa or pre-settled/settled status allows them to undertake full-time paid work for one year.
