Training & Internship

We provide 100% Internship and Industry Placement

City University internships and training are a form of on-the-job training. They give you the chance to apply your academic skills to a professional work environment. Paid or unpaid, their main focus is on your learning. Think of your internship as work experience rather than as a regular job.

Internships are usually part of a course

• Due to their strong focus on learning, internships are often an integral part of an academic course. Our convenors work closely with employers to build a program that will allow you to develop a set of skills while earning academic credit.
• Internship courses typically require you to complete a piece of research or practical work.

Employers also offer internship opportunities

• Many employers also offer internship opportunities. You can apply for these & self-sourced internships & just as you would for a regular job. 
• Both internship courses and self-sourced internships are valuable and can be competitive to get into.

Where do I start?

When exploring internships, we recommend you:

• speak to your Career Centre to learn about their internship options and when to enrol or apply
• explore alternative opportunities with Career Centre and other employment platforms for students.
• ask your student society for industry-specific information
• use our e-learning platform to help you build your application and prepare for your interview
• attend a workshop or book a 1:1 appointment with our career consultants, who can help you finetune your application.
