Project offers will be advertised to students and students CV applications will be passed onto the prospective project providers who can choose successful applicants. This can be done by getting in touch with the students and inviting them for an interview or informal chat whichever option is preferred by the provider. This is an opportunity for the provider to define and clarify project objectives as well as deadlines and agree a project schedule in a flexible part-time mode that is mutually convenient for both parties. Please note that the deadline for the students to complete their project/placement work is by Friday 21st April 2023 latest as per university requirements.
