We all know that taking a placement year will boost your employability – it’s what makes Aston graduates some of the most employable in the country.

It’s for this reason that we encourage each and every student to take one. 

A placement is a great opportunity to get a taste of the world of work, build your professional network, meet new people, and develop your skills. You can even travel abroad to work or study at one of our international university partners! 

Our Placements Team

As an Aston student, you have access to a team of dedicated Placement Coordinators who can support you through every step of your placement journey. They can run mock interviews with you, help you to identify your skills and match them to opportunities, support you with applications, and generally be your cheerleaders!
