Work placement

A designated sandwich programme leads to a University award in the sandwich mode and the word "(Sandwich)" appears on the award certificate. In order for the programme to lead to an award in the sandwich mode, the student must undertake a period of approved work experience of not less than 36 weeks with no possibility of exemption, normally between the end of Year 2 and the beginning of Year 4. This will normally be completed within the United Kingdom but with approval may be completed within other countries. Progress of the student’s training and development is monitored through visits from University academic staff or from reports from the student. Students will be required to document this period of work in accordance with the guidelines produced by the School.

The programme supports the student in opportunities to undertake live projects which may arise through their own endeavour and works to build such opportunities into the student’s learning and assessment through negotiation of briefs and presentable outcomes. The term ‘live projects’ refers here to a range of activities that extends well beyond those that are primarily commercial and includes social enterprise projects undertaken in connection with community groups, arts organisations and other agencies. Where a student wishes to undertake a live project, it is a requirement that before it commences there is in place a learning contract that specifies clearly how it enables the student to fulfil the module Learning Outcomes, the materials to be submitted for assessment, the date of submission for that material, what the work means in terms of the student’s attendance and workload and an appropriate strategy for supervision by a tutor. That contract has to be agreed by both the module tutor and the Programme Leader
