Feedback from previous work experience students has been overwhelmingly positive:

“I was very lucky to spend a week‘s work experience at the RILD building. Everyone was so friendly and arranged for me to tour the labs and shadow various members of staff in different areas of research. I learned a lot about the jobs available and how diverse they can be, as well as observing how they interact with other departments within the hospital.”

“I gained so much from this placement and would recommend it to anyone. In my opinion, the longer you can go for, the better as there is so much to take in and don’t be afraid to ask questions – the team are there for you and want you to get as much as you can out of every part of it.”
