Invitations to tours and talks of other science facilities across the Harwell Campus, such as ISIS and the Central Laser facility

Diamond Light Source is the UK’s national synchrotron facility, by using light 10 billion times brighter than the sun we are able to study samples at the atomic level, looking at research areas across all disciplines. We investigate anything from protein structure and nano-materials to jet engines and planetary atmospheres.

We are looking for undergraduate students studying Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Engineering, Software & Computing, Mathematics or a related subject to apply for the 2019 programme. The 12 week placements typically start on the 24th June. Students will be paid £15,749 pro rata and must already have the right to work in the UK.
