Student/Undergraduate Volunteer
MERU (Medical Engineering Resource Unit)
We often utilise the skills of design & engineering undergraduates to develop the number of concepts that Meru have 'lying in wait'. Often Meru has great ideas for products but we don't have the time or resources to take on the amount of market research to secure funding for development.Setting these projects as final year design briefs to conscientious university students will enable Meru to take leaps forward in both the marker research and the concept development stages of bringing a product to the marketplace. In return the student will gain valuable experience in working on a live brief for a client as well as a huge sense of personal achievement.

Research Volunteer
MERU (Medical Engineering Resource Unit)
Many of our projects require a good degree of research being completed before we can begin designing. For example, research into materials and parts or research to check out whether there are any duplicate products available. This is a time-consuming exercise and it would be great if we could ask volunteers to take some of this on.
