INTRODUCTION

Thank you for your interest in recruiting a Lancaster University student through the Faculty of Science and Technology Internship Scheme. Our students can offer businesses an excellent opportunity to address a skill or resource shortage by benefiting from up-to-date scientific skills and knowledge. Your business could use an internship to help cover during busy periods, trial new roles or research a new idea.

All of our students are keen to learn and improve their employability through real-world experience; this helps them to apply their academic learning in a more practical way, which can have real impact in your organisation.

Full time summer internships run between July and September. These are normally finalised, including the recruitment of a student, during April and May of each year. Part-time internships are available all year round at varying durations to fit with your business needs and the students' academic requirements.
