“My time conducting a Nuffield project with 鶹ýƵվ was amazing, and taught me so many skills; all the way from writing emails and time management to structuring a scientific report. Despite the COVID-19 challenge, the virtual experience was still extremely engaging with daily video calls, and my supervisors were lovely! They helped me a great deal (with absolutely anything I needed) and my understanding of my topic of research has grown tenfold. I would highly recommend a Nuffield project with 鶹ýƵվ to anyone who is looking for a better understanding of what researchers do and why research is so vital to the future of many industries!
