Work Experience - Summer Vacation

• Jun 1998 - Aug 1998

I applied to Malvern between my 2nd and 3rd year of my first degree in order to gain experience in a professional environment. I was sucessful, and privilaged to gain exposure to most areas of the business, from Research and Development, through Applications and Contract Services, through Production to IT and Customer Service. My main achievement during my time with Malvern was the definition, process design and process validation of the MasterSizer 2000 Sample Accessory (sonication/agitation/media pumping) - that was integrated into the firmware of the equipment. I was offered a position with the organisation, but was unable to accept it due to my educational commitments at the University of Sheffield.
