DfG helps students to improve their communication, interpersonal, problem-solving and organisation skills, as well as developing their ability to use their initiative and self-motivate. It also provides valuable CV-enhancing experience of working in the outside world.<\/p>\n
All students looking to undertake a research project at BU can register at\u00a0www.nus.org.uk\/dfg<\/a>\u00a0and create a profile. This allows them to search the organisations participating in DfG. They then request to be partnered with the organisation and organise a planning meeting. The student, their supervisor and a representative from the partner organisation meet to discuss the project and work together to make the project a success.<\/p>\n Examples of projects completed by students at other universities can be found on the\u00a0website<\/a>. They are a great way to kick-start your career and bring some much needed exposure to some great causes.<\/p>\n The SDG Accord is a commitment you can make to do what you can to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
