Opportunity to employ undergraduate students

Expressions of interest in supervising students in the next round of intake into the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) are now being invited.

Closing date for expressions of interest is 18 August.

• Students work full time for some or all of vacation periods and then 8 hours a week during semester. Actual start dates are arranged by the supervisor and student.

• The project can be experimental and based in a laboratory, clinical, computational or mathematical/statistical.

• Biomedical Research Victoria, through the UROP team, co-ordinate the call for applications from students and conduct the initial screening interviews. Suitable candidates will then be introduced to individual supervisors.

• Students are employed by your institution as casual staff at a rate equivalent to HEW2 (~$30/ hr). Students must work full-time during some or all of the vacation periods & 8 hours a week during semester. The BioMedVic is not able to provide funds to pay UROP students.
