Placement

“My placement gave me a lot of valuable, real life experience.

Without my placement experience, I would have found it much harder to know what I wanted to pursue in future and

it gave me a lot of help in obtaining a job afterwards.”

Emily

Event Innovation Pitches

“This is definitely my favourite unit so far. I’ve learnt so much

about event planning and innovation. I’ve especially

learnt how much a big idea can blind you, and that sometimes practicality and logistics can

get in the way!”
