Details about course variation options.

UCAS code: C307

During your placement year you will gain valuable experience, apply the skills learnt during the first and second years, improve personal and transferable skills, make new contacts and enhance your employability.

Work placements allow you to develop your career focus and are extremely valued by employers.

On this four-year variant of the BA/BSc Global Sustainability degree you will spend your third year on a self-organised work placement with an organisation relevant to your degree. We will provide plenty of guidance and support during your first and second years which will prepare you to research and apply for placements.

Your module convenor provides support while you are researching and applying for positions and you are encouraged to consider a range of organisations, including consultancies, charities, NGOs, research institutes and universities. During your placement you will have regular contact with the module convenor to identify what support you might need.

The professional placement year counts towards your degree through the completion of your placement and associated coursework. It contributes to your final degree classification, and the words 'with Professional Placement' will appear in your degree title.

If you spend a full year on a work placement (in the UK or abroad) you will pay a reduced fee. Find out more.

You can apply to BA/BSc Global Sustainability with Professional Placement directly through UCAS using the code above. You must achieve an average mark of at least 60% in Year 1 to progress to the Professional Placement year.
