Year 1Placement Workshop Placement Examples
What type of work can be done? Anything that has some relevance to your degree and is at an appropriate level: • lab work (analytical, microbiology, pathology, synthesis, research etc etc) • non-lab work (data management, clinical trials, medical writing, regulatory affairs etc) • field work • school-based placement
Are there limitations? • job ad will specify the degree disciplines that are relevant to that placement • there are placement opportunities for all degree disciplines • hospital path lab placements require students on BMS • if you find your own opportunity SHU has to approve it
