Carolyn Hayes

Carolyn is LEC’s Graduate Placement Manager and can help under and postgraduate students to find an industry partner for dissertation projects and long term collaborative research projects. This gives students hands on, relevant industry experience whilst gaining academic credit. Undergraduates should enrol onto LEC301 for this option and postgraduates should get in touch with Carolyn early in the academic year. Long term industry research projects will be advertised on an ad hoc basis.
