Applications are now closed. We will notify all supervisors that their application has been received by email by 5pm on 10 March.

What are Nuffield Undergraduate Bursaries?

The Nuffield Foundation offers around 400 Undergraduate Research Bursaries each year, allowing students across the UK to experience first hand what it would be like to be a scientific researcher by taking part in a research project during their summer holidays. For examples of projects that previous students have undertaken, please click here.
