The aim of APC’s Budding Biologists Programme for secondary schools is to promote an understanding and appreciation of science in young people and highlight career opportunities in science. The programme provides students with the opportunity to conduct ‘hands-on’ experiments or to carry out their Transition Year work placement in university laboratories. This encourages students to study science at third level, illustrates scientific career opportunities and enhances their science awareness.
