STOR-i's undergraduate interns will spend eight weeks at Lancaster working on research projects
On Monday 18th July, STOR-i welcomed the second intake of interns with a Welcome Day including an introduction to life as a STOR-i intern and a variety of ice breaker and team building activities.
As part of its mission STOR-i offers an opportunity for UK undergraduates to undertake 8-week research internships. The internships have been developed to give motivated students an opportunity to gain an experience of research alongside like-minded peers. The internships also allow students to develop their team working and problem solving skills through a variety of activities including collaborative group work and a problem solving day.
This year interns have joined STOR-i from Universities across the UK including Cambridge, Durham, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Lancaster, St Andrews and Warwick, as well as Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh and Imperial College London.
