Placements

We have an established history of using our strong links with industry to secure placements for our students. A placement is usually a 12-month full-time role that relates to the subject a student is studying.

As a placement provider, you will work with open-minded students that can make a real difference to your business. By hosting a placement, you get access to new knowledge, ideas and opportunities for growth. In return, you give students a valuable gift... real world experience.

Why placements?

Many companies relish the opportunity to hire students on placement. They enjoy the injection of fresh ideas and enthusiasm - which our students have in droves. In fact, a lot of employers go on to hire their placement students once they graduate.

Advantages of a placement for employers:

• Students as a source of new knowledge and ideas
• They are a link with our university and access to our expertise and facilities
• Students complete a short-term project where a fixed role isn't required
• Reduce cost of recruiting a short-term employee
• Once the placement is over, the student will be fluent in the company culture and practices - making them a great choice to hire
