Overview
Conduct frontrunners jobs, meetings with supervisor. Organisation of jobs and managing time. I also had to prepare a lot of scientific sample and then proceed to analyse them. Finally i had to write reports on the results with discussion on the results.
Skills
yes i have built my organisation and communication skills as well as my overall knowledge on the topic which will help me in the future.
Responsibilities
Yes, I was in charge of my time. There were regular meetings with supervisors which involved discussion of previous weeks work and planning what i am going to do for the next week. I was also responsible for working alone in the lab and this requires its own set of responsibilities and care.
Support & Guidance
a lot of support and guidance was offered both by supervisors as well as DMU staff who were knowledgeable and supportive. Initially, they had a presentation prior to us starting the internship which gave us all the information we needed going forward. I found that really useful.
Culture
Very good and supportive culture. Everyone is friendly
Your Impressions
