University of Plymouth Placements

A University of Plymouth placement that is provided by the university to students, not only gives students the chance to put their subject knowledge and technical skills to use in a professional setting, but it also offers them a priceless window into the communication, culture, and professional workplace behaviours of the organisation they are working for. It also helps students build relationships with their coworkers. Students on placements also express how much they value the experience for boosting their self-esteem and promoting reflective practice, as well as for acquiring many of the "missing skills" that companies seek in graduates.

When the time comes, students can face competition from other recent graduates for the same positions. Employers are looking for people with actual "job experience" on their CVs more than ever before, so gaining as much as they can while in school can really help them stand out from the competition. A global perspective that employers value can be gained from an international placement, which can complement the professional abilities a student will build at work.

 

Practice Placements:

Practice assignments provide opportunities for a variety of clinical experiences in both established settings, such as acute care facilities and community settings, as well as in emerging services, such as the independent, private, and nonprofit sectors.
