How you can benefit

Here's what two of this year's Discover Âé¶¹Éç students said about the programme:

Participating in the Discover Âé¶¹Éç project for Biology allowed me to deepen my understanding of post A level biology and gain the skills an undergraduate scientist would need in writing formal scientific reports! The project also allowed me to solidify my choice in Biochemistry for undergraduate study as it introduced me to the clinical side of drug development in Biology/Biochemistry which is an area of great interest to me! The programme allowed me to become more organised and studious over summer 2020 which aided me in my A level studies and extracurricular work! It made learning online really engaging and gave me an insight into university life and work!

The Discover Âé¶¹Éç program was surprisingly informative and detailed. It opened my eyes as I ended up learning a lot about the subject which led to me applying for it.
