SHAREWhat the programme is
Our Social Sciences and Humanities Access to Research Experience (SHARE) programme is a four-week paid internship that gives undergraduates the opportunity to experience postgraduate research in the social sciences and humanities at the University of Cambridge and Anglia Ruskin University.
