We offer activities that include School work experience (though we only have a few places), and science activities to suit the special interests of the school's science students.
Work experience

Peter Mac requires its staff and students to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 and provide evidence.
All healthcare workers (including students and honoraries) are required to have had three doses of the COVID-19 vaccination in order to work onsite - including those who are not patient facing.
Please contact us if you would like to discuss this requirement.
Career information
Students wanting to pursue a biomedical research career have many different career options.
Our researchers and students can come to your school. There they can share their experiences about their research and careers.
We list some of the options and the education requirements for working in those careers.
