Dear colleagues,
Please could you bring the following Summer Research Internships to the attention of those who might be interested.
Many thanks,
Idris Eckley
STOR-i Summer Research Internships 2020, Lancaster University
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
STOR-i research internships offer a unique opportunity for you to experience and learn how Statistics and Operational Research (STOR) can be employed to tackle challenging practical problems.
The internships are aimed at giving an insight into what a PhD in Statistics and OR is really like, and are open to students interested in the possibility of undertaking a PhD. The scheme is aimed at UK and EU students about to enter their final year of undergraduate study and aiming to achieve a strong 2:1 or 1st class degree in a subject containing a large quantitative element - this includes, for example, mathematics, statistics, physics and engineering. We regret that we will not be able to consider any applications from non-EU students.
Internships run for 8 weeks over the summer vacation, from 13th July 2020 until 4th September 2020, during which you will engage in research with leading academics from STOR at Lancaster University. As a STOR-i intern you will join other high-calibre undergraduate students studying in a vibrant research environment plus you will be supported by a bursary of £300 per week.
