 The
Year in Industry provides paid, degree-relevant
work placements for students in the year out before
or during their degree course. The scheme offers
a unique type of year out. The Year in Industry
placements provide paid, structured and fully supported
work experience from which students gain career
and personal development, confirm their career
choice and prepare for their degree.
- The Year in Industry specialises in work
placements for all aspects of Engineering,
Science, IT and Computing, Business and much
more.
- Students are carefully matched with companies
throughout the UK and placements generally
last 12 months and follow the academic year.
Students typically earn between £8500
and £14000 during their placement.
- Students get the chance to gain valuable
work experience while saving up cash to help
them
through university or travel the world and
broaden horizons even further.
It is also a great opportunity to increase
the chance for university sponsorship.
Students get the experience that recruiters
and universities are looking for and improve
their
degree and employment prospects, and companies
get access to highly motivated and
talented individuals whilst benefiting from a
highly cost effective resource.
The scheme is supported by top universities
and over 250 UK companies take part each year.
The Year in Industry has placed over 8500 students
since the scheme began in 1987.
