SATROclub Extended Research Placements

This Summer, a cohort of students from all around Surrey will be participating in SATROclub Extended Work Placements at various companies and Universities including, The University of Surrey, Royal Holloway University, St George's Hospital Cardiology Unit, Card Geotechnics Ltd, Surrey Satellite Technology Ltd, KBC Advanced Technology Engineering and Jacobs Engineering.


SATRO organises these STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) placements to give students aged 16+ a chance to undertake a real STEM research project by working in a research environment for four weeks, after which they are inspired to pursue further study, and employment, in STEM.


Students who have participated in previous years benefitted hugely from the programme,


"The extended work placement gave me a valuable insight into what research in a STEM subject might be like, which helped me in considering career choices and the possibility of post graduate study."


"This placement has helped me become better equipped for life at university, allowing me to gain a much great appreciation of life as a science undergraduate. It gave me the chance to develop not only my subject knowledge but also my practical skills, study skills, time management and organisation."
