How our placements work

Most of our undergraduate courses, and some of our postgraduate taught courses, give students the opportunity to go on a placement as part of their degree.

Undergraduate placements

Our undergraduate students study a wide range of courses across our academic departments.

The majority of our placements run for 30 to 40 weeks, starting between June and September. A smaller number start between January and March. Some courses offer short-term placement opportunities (minimum 12 weeks).

Our students work in the UK or internationally, depending on the course they study.
