 - a series of events exploring various routes into NHS graduate programmes.

About the programme
The NHS Scientist Training Programme (STP) is a three year training programme.

Trainees are employed by an NHS Trust for the duration of the programme and will spend time in a range of settings, before specialising in the last two years of the programme.

The aim of the STP is to produce graduates who will possess the essential knowledge, skills, experience and attributes required of a newly-qualified Clinical Scientist in the NHS. They will be able to undertake complex scientific and clinical roles, defining and choosing investigative and clinical options, making key judgements about complex facts and clinical situations within a quality assurance framework.

Many will work directly with patients and all will have an impact on patient care and outcomes. They will be involved, often in lead roles, in innovation and improvement, research and development and/or education and training.

About the event
This event, delivered by STP Training Programme Director, Jane Lynch, will help you to understand more about what the programme involves and whether it's right for you. The session will also feature two Sussex graduates, who will be available to give their personal advice on the application process and their experience as a trainee so far.

You will find out more about:

• What the work of a clinical scientist involves in a day to day basis
• What it's like to complete a Masters on a part-time basis, alongside your job
• The application process - what to expect and how best to prepare.
• This will be an informal Q&A event so please come along with questions

Open to: All Engineering & Informatics, Life Sciences, and Physics students
