The Natural Environment Research Council has launched a call for internships, inviting existing researchers to apply for projects of up to four months, based in businesses, policy or third sector organisations. Interns will explore and demonstrate how business, policy or third sector partners in the area of Marine Renewable Energy can make use of scientific knowledge, data, models or other tools to understand and manage their impacts and/or dependencies on the environment. The internships offer appointees an excellent opportunity for extending their research experience into business, policy or other settings. Applications to the NERC internships will be accepted on a rolling basis, until the funding has been allocated or by 5pm on 26 October 2012.
