“Taking part in Reading’s Undergraduate Research Opportunities Programme, [UROP] is a big thing for me and the beginning of fulfilling a dream. It’s been a big eye-opener and has shown me the importance of legal research and the career opportunities that could follow on from it. I have developed a set of skills that will set me up for life including self-management, thorough researching and analysis at a higher level.”
