Learning chemistry through placements: Building on good practice and identifying new opportunities
Abstract
This article presents and discusses the results of a project that focussed on identifying new work-based learning opportunities for chemistry students. Firstly, we investigated whether typical chemistry employers, who traditionally host sandwich or year-long placements, are able to offer short-term (e.g. summer) placements as an alternative work-based learning experience. Secondly, we determined to what extent non-traditional employers of chemistry graduates are also able to offer relevant and appropriate placement opportunities for chemistry students.
