AFNR2003: Research Placement
2025 unit information
This placement will give students the experience of working in a research-focused environment. This may include field or lab-based research across any number of industries related to agriculture. Examples include University based research (at the University of Sydney or other institutions), commercial research (e.g. research labs, pharmaceutical companies), conservation ( non-profit organisations) etc.. The focus of this placement should be to understand the research environment, processes and methodologies, and the application of the research outcomes relevant to the field of work. Students should also familiarise themselves with the research team, aims and funding schemes, and the major challenges associated with the research field. Students can choose from a comprehensive list of research placement sites on SONIA, or are welcome to find and apply to add a new site/supervisor.
