Through our links with industry, experienced academic staff, various accreditations, entrepreneurial outlook and careers service we offer a supportive yet challenging environment to make sure you stand out.
Our links with employers
The experience of our staff will enrich your career prospects. Across our schools, our staff work on knowledge exchange projects; sit on advisory boards; and provide direct services and consultancy to commercial and public-sector clients.
Our staff use their active involvement in commercial and public life to arrange substantial input from employers, including talks and workshops, employer-led projects and professional placements. They proactively let you know information about job vacancies, internships, competitions and grants.
Industry accreditation
Many of our courses are accredited by industry bodies. From the Institute of Hospitality to the Engineering Council, these bodies support our courses because they have been designed from an industry perspective.
We continue to build relationships with industry. For example our MSc Corporate Governance programme has been developed in conjunction with the Institute of Chartered Secretaries and Administrators (ICSA), while our new MSc Game Technologies course has been awarded Playstation©First status by Sony.
On our MSc in Corporate Governance, we’re working with ICSA so that you can do a Masters degree, but at the same time you’re making significant progress towards a professional qualification.
Academic skills
Throughout the year, we run Academic skills workshops, open to all postgraduates and all free of charge. They include sessions specifically for non-native English speakers, and cover anything from essay writing to presentations to help with mathematics.
