Brunel Business School was one of the first business schools in the UK to introduce postgraduate placements for Master's students back in 2011.
Placements are becoming more popular among more mature student as they serve as a springboard into what is an extremely competitive jobs market. Postgraduate work placement employers cover all related expenses and may also provide a salary.
It's up to you to secure your work placement, however, we see placements as an integral part of our courses, so our academic staff plus the Professional Development Centre will provide you with all the support you need.
Just some of the organisations who have previously offered placements include:
- West London NHS Trust
- Barclays
- Elanco
- DriftRock
- Environment Agency
- Law and Lawyers Solicitors
- Lawrence and Wedlock
- Lilly UK
- Lintbells
- VOI Technology
- Optimus Search
- PFP Energy Ltd.
- Philips Electronics
- Bunzl
- TASIS The American School in England
The courses are structured so you will complete your taught programme and dissertation first and then have the opportunity to complete a short or long placement following the dissertation as part of your course. Previous Brunel Business School students have secured placements within fields such as Marketing, Management, Business Development, HR, Recruitment, Sales, Social Media Management, Content Creation, Market Research, Business Analysis, Digital Marketing, Operations, Account Management and more.
