Research in Practice (RinP) Placement

A social sciences postgraduate researcher (PGR) will spend the equivalent of 3 months working with you on a discrete project, challenge or research question. No payment is required for this placement.

This gives them a practical opportunity to apply their specialist theoretical knowledge and methodological skills in different contexts, and to collaborate across sectoral and disciplinary boundaries. It develops their awareness of the breadth of careers open to them as social science graduates, and ensures that they have the wider core skills essential for a successful career in academic and non-academic sectors.

Projects are welcome from Host Organisations in any industry, sector & size.

We’re currently looking for placements with start dates from March 2026 onwards.
