Work Experience at USW
Employers want to recruit graduates who have existing knowledge of the working world. Our close links with relevant employers like British Airways, Sony, and Tata allow us to design courses that give you the skills they’re looking for.
As an International (non-EU) student you'll need to discuss the options of doing a work placement with our Immigration and International Student Advice team after you start your studies at USW. The ability to undertake a work placement as part of your course may depend on your category of leave (visa type) and personal circumstances.
When you get to work, you’ll be working as a team, writing notes or reports, giving presentations and communicating with colleagues, meeting targets or client deadlines. We make sure you develop all these skills while you’re studying. Through group work, presentations, research and projects, you’ll get plenty of opportunities to practice the skills you need for any job in any sector.
