Nuffield Science Bursaries - Schools and Colleges

What makes a good project?

A project should allow you scope to use your initiative.

The criteria for selecting projects are that they should:

• have clear scientific or technological content;
• contribute to the work of the host organisation;
• be well defined, having a clear outcome in mind from the beginning;
• give students a chance to work alongside practising scientists;
• allow scope for initiative on the part of the student.
