The Central England NERC Training Alliance (CENTA) is a consortium of research intensive universities and research institutes that are working together to provide excellence in doctoral research training.
The NERC Research Experience Placement (REP) scheme is intended to encourage students to consider a career in the environmental sciences through funding to support paid summer placements for undergraduate students.
Students will carry out research projects within the environmental sciences and should express an interest in pursuing an environmental sciences career.
These will include projects at a number of CENTA partner institutions which will be open to all eligible undergraduates, and up to two Research Experience Placement for undergraduate students from an Minority Ethnic background who is home-fee eligible.
