The Professional Experience tutor in charge of the student's course will be happy to advise on the type and level of work that is appropriate. Students are required to give a presentation about their placement and to keep a logbook. These form part of the assessment of the student's placement. Supervising the student At the start of the placement, the employer allocates a supervisor to the student. This may be the student's direct line manager, or it may be someone different.
Some employers allocate a mentor as well as a supervisor.
The supervisor is normally the person who reviews progress with the student at regular intervals and meets with the University tutor when they visit. We will then send you detailed CV's for these students. We are always looking for opportunities and we are particularly keen to develop permanent links with companies.
