PSI Careers Episode 6: Opportunities offered by doing a placement year in the Pharmaceutical and Healthcare industry (Part 1 – Statisticians)

Following on from 2019’s series, we again collaborate with PSI Careers to bring two new episodes, this time discussing the opportunities offered by doing a placement year in the Pharmaceutical and Healthcare industry.

We chat with placement students from a diverse range of education backgrounds (from Mathematics and Statistics through to Computer science and Bioengineering) about their experiences during the past year, covering such topics as their motivation for doing a placement year, skills and knowledge gained, and the impact of the ongoing COVID pandemic. The students also share their recommendations and tips for anyone thinking of doing a placement year.

The first episode concentrates on the statistician role and we talk to:
