What is a Gold CREST award?
Your students may choose to work towards a Gold CREST (CREativity in Science and Technology) Award while they are on their bursary placements. This is a nationally recognised scheme to reward Science & Technology project work. To achieve a Gold CREST award the student must work on a project for 100 hours at a high level of science. Nuffield Bursary projects easily fulfil the criteria and so students are encouraged to submit their work. See The British Science Association website for futher details.
