Employers Board
The School of Social Sciences Employers Board is an important group that helps give direction to the practice-based and applied focus of our programmes.
Academic colleagues and representatives from local and national employers work together on several key initiatives, including running live briefs, where students work on a research question set by and of interest to the employer; offering of placement/internship opportunities; and providing insights and advice into current industry practice to help shape our curriculum.
The Employers Board has become an integral part of the School’s efforts to strengthen our students’ skills and experiences.
