Video podcast demonstrates range of undergraduate research project

The latest podcast on the ECS News student channel showcases the MEng Individual Research project, through the work of six students, including Emma Lee-Choon.

The IRP is an ambitious project, which is supervised by academic staff on an individual basis and undertaken within the academic’s research group. The student undertakes and reports on research in a particular field and presents the results in paper form, conference presentation and poster. This results in a real awareness of research methods, giving students an insight into the research culture of the School and helping to encourage them either to stay in the School to study for a PhD, or to seek a research-focused job in industry.

Students talking about their IRP in the podcast are Charles Pickers, Emma Lee-Choon, Anthony Ambrus, Sabrina Nefti, Ian Cooper, and Rebecca Coath.
