Farradeh, Chloe and Junad have been living at Gonville & Caius College this summer during their six-week paid internships as part of the SHARE Summer Research Experience.

SHARE is co-sponsored at Cambridge by the ESRC (Economic and Social Research Council) through its Doctoral Training Partnership and aims to provide opportunities for students who are undertaking undergraduate study around the UK to experience postgraduate studies.

The students completed their research placements in July and August, providing them with real day-to-day experience of postgraduate research – plus the experience of living and socialising as a postgraduate student at Caius, with accommodation provided by the College.

SHARE is designed to offer everyone who takes part tangible benefits in terms of confidence, skills and experience that will enhance both their CV and any future postgraduate applications.

To learn more about the SHARE internships, visit the Cambridge ESRC DTP website or the School of the Humanities and Social Sciences website.
