Supporting your business

Do you have a business challenge you don't have the time, resource or in-house knowledge to address? Our courses offer students the chance to undertake projects and placements with businesses. These not only give our students the chance to gain work experience, they also give your business access to a pool of talented recruits who can tackle specific challenges and bring fresh skills to the table.

How to engage with our students

Depending on their course, students from different disciplines will be available to join your business at different times of the year. Below you'll find details of which project placements are running throughout the academic year. Just click on a subject area to find out more about the kind of work experience students are best suited to and how they've supported businesses in the past.
