By 2050, the planet could be using twice as much electricity compared to today. Are you interested in contributing and helping to shape the future of the world’s energy? If so, read on. Fusion, the process that powers the Sun and Stars, is one of the most promising options for generating the cleaner, carbon-free energy that our world badly needs. UKAEA are at the forefront of realising energy from fusion, working with industry and research partners to deliver the ground-breaking developments that will underpin tomorrow’s fusion power stations with the aim of bringing fusion electricity to the grid. As we work towards our mission and goals, UKAEA has devised values that capture the spirit of how we work. These values include being: Innovative, Committed, Trusted and Collaborative.
Who are we looking for? We are looking for an Electrical Year in Industry Placement Student to work with the RACE (Remote Applications in Challenging Environments) department. You will perform a variety of engineering tasks designed to provide experience and familiarization with staff, methods, practices, and programs of the organisation. This may include operating, maintaining and demonstrating equipment. Aslo, you will be expected to manage your own development continuously working towards building their knowledge and skills throughout the placement. RACE is the UKAEA’s centre for robotics in challenging environments. Our year in industry placements will provide experience working on real engineering projects developing advanced robotics to carry out complex tasks in hazardous environments. To be successful you will have excellent analytical skills as well as good communication and influencing skills. This is an exciting opportunity to work within a team and external partners within RACE. As an ideal candidate you will have a great passion for engineering and innovation.
