*Maximise the impact of your research the fun way*

Maximise the impact of your research, develop your transferable skills and have fun by engaging secondary school via the RCUK-funded Researchers in Residence scheme.

The Research Councils encourage your participation in the scheme which places early-stage career researchers (PhD and post doc researchers) in host secondary schools to inspire 11-19 year olds about their work. It gives researchers the opportunity to bring their knowledge to bear through a range of activities including demonstrations, discussions, careers talks or university visits.
