Standard recruitment methods are not ideal for ensuring a person's suitability to a particular job. Seeing someone actually do the job for a specific period of time is the 'real' way of assessing potential. The School of Engineering enjoys close links with local, national and international organisations with students and industrialists alike agreeing that the placement experience is invaluable to all concerned. Our unit has an excellent record for satisfying the needs of both the employers and students. We can help with CVs and interview skills and we operate an open-door policy.
Students can drop in for information and guidance whenever they choose, within office hours.
Student employment prospects are greatly improved by contacts made through industrial placement.
