Our work experience placements, designed for Lower Sixth (Year 13) pupils, offer young people a fantastic opportunity to see for themselves what it is like to work in a leading global pharmaceutical contract manufacturing and development organisation.
By participating in our three day placement programme, pupils will gain an insight into the drug development process and the variety of rewarding career paths available at Almac, both inside and outside the laboratory, through tours, conversations with staff and activities.
Day 3 of the placement will allow pupils to gain first hand experience of scientific, engineering or technology careers at Almac, depending on area of interest. Transport between Almac and W5 on Day 3 will be provided, as required. An example schedule is shown below:
