Overview: Join us for an interactive session in a computer lab where you can hear about what a placement year is, the journey of the placement year (from finding a placement to returning to university after a placement year) and speak with members of the Placements Team.  

After an overview, you’ll have the chance to log into a computer and search on jobs boards; submit your placement declaration through CareerHub; or populate your self placement form through InPlace. 

FMW exclusivity: This exclusive Future Me Week session will also give you the opportunity to familiarise yourself with job boards, learn how to declare your placement, learn how to complete a self placement form and ask questions you may have on the approvals process. You can also hear about what to expect whilst on your approved placement year and returning to your third year after your placement has concluded.  

Who can come: The session is open for second year undergraduate students and students in their first year of their postgraduate course who have secured a placement, are looking to declare their placement, or who have already declared their placement and want to know more about the next steps. 

Accessibility: We are committed to making this event as inclusive as possible. Accessibility measures in place already include wheelchair access. Find out more about the building and room (Business School BS 2.08.) on the Building Access Map.
