Placement Learning Project

In addition to the standard requirement of 36 weeks of work placement, you may elect to replace one of the Study Abroad semesters (semesters 4 & 5) with a period of 4-5 months of assessed work placement (Placement Learning Project).

This gives you the chance to really make the most of the practical application of your theoretical business knowledge.

This is the equivalent of two Level 2 Study Abroad electives, counting for 30 credits, and will be assessed on the same basis as a Study Abroad semester, gaining credits but with the grade not being counted towards classification.

If you wish to elect to take this route through the degree, you must inform the BA Programme Director by the end of your first semester.

"The whole scholarship process was such a gratifying experience. Writing about debt relief raised my awareness of Third World development issues, and has motivated me to help in any way I can. I also had fun meeting future students and staff on the presentation day. My family and I were thrilled with the news and it was definitely rewarding to have my effort and ideas recognised."
