Fresh ideas, innovative perspective and newfound knowledge - just some of the things both employers and students develop and build upon when they embark on one of KBS's enviable placement schemes.
Student Placement Scheme
Year
in Industry
Our Year in Industry option enables students to take on a 44-week job role as part of their courses.
The placements are taken between years two and three of study for BSc students and after their first year of study for MSc students.
The salaried positions are self-sought but with the support
of our Employability Team. They allow students to immerse themselves into a role,
develop their skills in business and build an enviable CV to boost their potential.
An in-company student consultancy
project runs June-August and offers selected MSc and MBA students the opportunity
to work their dissertation or final project in a real business environment.
The
student may work on any area offered up by an employer and will be available for one day a month between March and May of the academic
year for MSc students and April-August for MBA students.
We also enable businesses the opportunity to work with our MBA students during Consultancy Week. Working in small teams students develop recommendations, provide a report and invite feedback.
The MBA Consultancy Project takes place in March each year.
