So, what is research volunteering?

  • During your studies, you will have developed a myriad of research skills: critical thinking, reading widely and consolidating new information, managing data, presenting information, problem-solving
  • Together with our charity partners, we've created volunteering opportunities where you can hone these research skills through engaging with real world problems
  • While you can gain cross-sector experience, the charities receive valuable research and evaluation to back up their important work. It's a win-win!

How do I get involved?

  1. Submit an expression of interest to the organisation to get the ball rolling!
  2. Keep an eye on your emails because some organisations may require more details (e.g. letter of interest) before selecting students for the projects
  3. After an informal interview or chat, you’ll be onboarded and get started on the research in a small team of students
  4. We'll be in touch to check in and provide support throughout the process from [email protected]. You can also reach out if you're having any issues or want advice
