NextGen is an excellent opportunity for companies to recruit students from the School of Computing for a year placement or shorter work experiences, it also puts your organisation in front our students as a potential employer.
Work experience programmes
There are two work experiences programmes that your company can choose from:
A placement year is an opportunity for your company to address a specific project or series of projects that requires a fresh insight and extra pair of hands. It's also an opportunity for your business to experience how a new graduate would work in your organisation.
A short internship (for instance over the summer). The School actively encourages IT related placements as they will boost the students' career aspirations and strengthen links between industry and the School and provide temporary help to your business.
Simon Stobart, Dean of the School of Computing, said, 'I am proud to know that our graduates are equipped with leading edge knowledge and skills which provides them with a strong competitive advantage when competing within the global job market.
