2022 WMG Summer Research Internship Projects

WMG Summer Research Internships 2022 - NOW CLOSED FOR APPLICATIONS

Below is a list of projects offering internships for summer 2022. Click the link to find out full details of the internship. At the bottom of each page is the form for which you can apply to the position.

Projects will take place during the summer vacation period and last for 8-weeks. Candidates selected for the internship should discuss with supervisors an appropriate start date, ensuring the projects are completed before the start of the Autumn term.

We have a mixture of projects that can either be completed remotely or are laboratory-based. Lab-based projects will have a 'Plan-B' project that can be completed remotely in case of any future COVID related restrictions. Before applying to these projects please ensure you would be happy to undertake the alternative remote project as well as the main proposed project.

Applications require a CV and personal statement, which should state the reasons for your interest in the project, how you will contribute to its success and how you match the required skillset.

If you have any questions, please first check the FAQ page here. If your question is not answered, please contact Dr Mark Elliott: m.t.elliott@warwick.ac.uk 

The application deadline for all projects is Friday 8th April 2022!
