Study a master’s with a placement for excellent career opportunities

Today’s highly competitive labour market and a growing demand among employers for practical skills make work placements an invaluable part of a postgraduate degree.

To meet this growing demand for practical skills, we now offer eighteen two-year courses across multiple disciplines that combine academic study on campus with a year of industrial practice.

What can you study?

The following two-year master's courses are available from September:

Computer Science

Food Technology

Engineering

Science

How it works

These two-year awards give you the opportunity to gain practical experience with a company of your choice, either in the UK or overseas.

The courses combine specialised knowledge in the first year with a chance to put this into practice in year two.

You'll also gain exposure to varied tasks and responsibilities required in the workplace, which helps you emerge more prepared for the world of work and your future career.

While students are responsible for securing a placement, we work with a partner organisation that specialises in helping you source placements. Our science and engineering employability team is also on hand to provide support and guidance.

A unique opportunity

A unique opportunity for students with a STEM background to fast-track and excel into fully paid roles in their chosen disciplines. Our dedicated team will prepare you to join  organisations as professionals.
