This grant provides undergraduate students with summer research opportunities in optoelectronics, vision, and eye-related fields. It encourages supervisors at UK universities to involve students directly in daily research activities, fostering practical experience before their final year. Projects must be conducted at UK institutions with strong research commitments in these areas.
Applicants must be undergraduate students in their penultimate year expecting a first or upper second-class honours degree. The research project must be at a UK university or institution with a strong focus on optoelectronics, though the student's home institution can be outside the UK.
