Dates for 2025: Monday 14th April to Thursday 17th April 2025

We have a small number of work experience placements available each year for students in Years 10-12.

The work experience placement will provide you with a broad insight into physics and what it would be like to work in a busy university physics department. You will spend time with our highly skilled research and technical staff learning about real-life physics problems and working on exciting research projects.

You can see some example schedules of what the week may look like:
