Summer opportunities
What are our student summer placements all about?
Well, they focus on introducing innovation into local companies and social enterprises, and cover a whole range of disciplines.
The great thing is they are often with smaller organisations, so you will get real hands-on business experience, and more than a little responsibility. This gives you a head start compared to other graduates.
You will have the chance to make a real impact by delivering a project that really affects the way the organisation operates.
These are some of the projects that you could get experience in:
- Implementing a marketing plan, producing marketing materials and press releases, organising or managing an event, setting up a social media strategy.
- Assisting with product design, e.g. in engineering, technology or IT.
- Leading on a creative project, e.g. jewellery design.
- Developing e-business or a website.
- Developing a new service the business want to offer, researching their target audience.
