Career prospects

As an MBA student you will have access to comprehensive careers guidance through our dedicated careers advisors. This guidance is designed to support you in developing your personal brand and to assist you in navigating your career options beyond the MBA.  

You will have the opportunity to work with a range of businesses during the programme which will enable you to apply and refine the diverse skills required to succeed within the modern business world. As a full-time MBA student you will be eligible to apply for paid work alongside an academic expert to help local SMEs bring innovative products and services to market via the the Keele Research and Innovation Support Programme (KRISP).

As an MBA student at Keele you will have the opportunity to undertake a work placement to apply your theory and learning to practice. Placement opportunities not only enable you to refine your skill-set, but allow you the space to establish and foster professional relationships with a variety of business leaders. Previous Keele Business School students have undertaken placements with organisations such as Amazon, JCB, Bellway Homes, Michelin DC and Hewitt & Carr Services Limited.

Students who require a visa to study in the UK may be able to add in a work placement depending upon the programme. The ability to add a work placement is dependent upon the UK Immigration rules at the time of the request. It may be that for some programmes students will not have the option to request a placement period to be added to their programme before they arrive in the UK and would need to apply for a new visa. There is no guarantee that a placement will be provided and that students who have a visa are subject to a number of restrictions on the type of work, including placements they can undertake.
