Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê has partnerships with a number of different organisations who offer opportunities for students to engage in real world projects and challenges during their studies.
An important part of your university experience is preparing yourself for a career after your studies. It's important to gain and develop key skills to make yourself more employable once you have graduated.
Work experience gives you real-life employability skills that are invaluable when applying for a job as a graduate. Employers expect a range of transferable skills when they recruit graduates, such as problem solving, analytical skills, team skills and commercial awareness. Taking part in a placement or internship during your studies mean you’re more likely to stand out from the crowd when applying for jobs.

- Rachel's experience
The experience I had working withÌýÌýcould be summarised in 3 words: amazing, inspiring, and eye-opening. Before the placement, I knew almost nothing about the Ed-tech industry but after having interesting conversations with the team at Young at Heart, I can confidently say with no doubt that I am familiar with the industry especially the accessibility of the use of educational technology in developing countries.
