What sort of work should I give them?

Define the goals of the project as far as possible at the outset through discussion with the student. Try and give the project a self-contained identity even though it may be part of a bigger scheme of work. Allow the student to work independently where practical. As far as possible, the outcome should be reasonably achievable in the time available (4-6 weeks). The Nuffield Foundation hopes that this work will be a useful contribution to the host organisation. It can be useful to use the Gold CREST Award framework to define the project.
