Placement Students
The University of Surrey has a highly developed Professional Training Programme. This has been part of the fabric of the University since its inception and we are justly proud of what we do. Almost all our courses offer the option of a year-long placement in industry, in the third year of a four year course, and the majority of students take this opportunity. We believe that this is a major contributor to our consistently high position in the employment league tables.
The placement year opportunities are integral to the student’s degree and are coordinated and advertised within the academic departments. Please contact the following to connect you to the appropriate department:
