The John Innes Centre International Undergraduate Summer School in plant and microbial science 2021

The Undergraduate Summer School is a unique opportunity for undergraduates from all corners of the world to spend eight weeks at their internationally renowned research centre, partnering with fellow Norwich Research Park institutes; The Sainsbury Laboratory and the Earlham Institute.
Students experience plant and microbial science, interacting with some of our world-leading scientists and gain an unrivalled insight into research.

One afternoon each week is dedicated to training events that cover activities such as science communication, computer programming, field studies, advanced presentation skills, and discussions with students from previous years about career development.
Social interactions and teamwork are encouraged throughout, with activities including make-your-own pizza, a bat walk and BBQs.
The programme culminates in a two-day conference on the beautiful North Norfolk coast where students present and share their research.
