    Career

    <!–– Not used on EESE railway degrees ––>

    Do you know where you’ll be in five, ten, 20 years' time? Your degree from Birmingham will equip you with the creative, professional and technical skills to lead change and innovation in a future that we know little about for certain, other than that the technologies and systems we use will not be the same as they are today.

    Industrial Year

    A year working in industry provides you with the opportunity to build skills and confidence in the workplace. The School of Engineering Employability Network (SEEN), led by our Industrial Liaison Officer, provides advice and skills training to students looking for support with their careers, or who wish to undertake placements as part of their studies. Students within the department secure placements from a wide range of employers, with recent students taking their industrial year at companies including IBM, Jaguar Land Rover, BMW, Renesas, Cadence Design Systems, and Rolls Royce.

    My year in industry helped me a lot and increased my confidence. It helped me in understanding what sort of technical and practical knowledge I require out of the degree
