Research Experience Placement 2017 at British Antarctic Survey

Hello UKPN,

Are you an undergraduate student in a quantitative discipline outside of NERC's scientific remit (e.g. mathematics, statistics, computing, engineering, physics)? 
And would you like to work over the summer as part of a research team at the British Antarctic Survey?

I am looking for someone to work on a lab project to understand better the self-cleansing capacity of the lower atmosphere in polar regions
Deadline for student applications is noon on Friday, 2 June 2017

Please feel free to forward to anyone to whom this may be of interest.

Markus
