EPSRC Summer Internships 2024

We received funding from EPSRC to support internships and increase interaction with the Bede Supercomputer within the N8 CIR community.


The N8 CIR hosted 24 internships across the N8 universities in the summer of 2024. These projects varied in design and covered all three key themes of digital health, digital humanities, and machine learning.

Here, you can find the list of the research projects. There is also a news article on the event in which students presented their work in September 2024 in York. Where available, their personal links take you to a video of their research presentation on our YouTube site.
