Student experience
Overview
Building connections with industry
The Industry Project in Biotechnology puts you to work with one of our local, national or international industry partners. Together with a group of fellow students, you’ll act as ‘consultants’ – working on a real-life biotechnology business topic. Time on site with your industry partner will also give you an invaluable opportunity to build your networks and understand your career options.

In the Business Project in Biotechnology, you’ll work in a campus-based group on a practical business challenge for one of our industry partners.
