Student Placements

Ulster University Business School collaborates with diverse local and international employers, offering high-quality placements for undergraduates and postgraduates.

We enhance future employability by integrating academic knowledge with real-world practical skills in the workplace.

We re-launched our placement  competition, to recognise and celebrate the achievements of students who have successfully secured and completed professional placements.

We invited students not to simply write about their experience, but to tell their story on camera, in their own words, and through their own lens. Each video was a unique window into the placement experience, capturing the professionalism, creativity, and depth of learning our students gained during their time in the workplace.

Meet Fionn Forbes, who undertook his placement within the Sales and Events Department at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, Belfast, as part of Andras Hotels—Northern Ireland’s largest hotel group.

Unlock business value with an Ulster placement student:

• Tap into innovative solutions
• advance projects with university expertise
• access a talent pool
• provide growth opportunities for both potential and existing employees

Join Ewan Glenny, student at Ulster University and Jane Boyle, Head of HR Services at Allen & Overy (Belfast) to discover the mutual benefits of work placements for learners and employers.
