Requirements
Students enrolled on the master programs Change Management or Energy, Environment & Society can apply for work placement.
To increase your chances to get a work placement-position, we recommend you to apply to maximum three companies. Spend time when writing the applications and CVs.
Students are not guaranteed an interview with the companies they apply to, nor are they guaranteed an offer for work placement. Students without offers have elective courses at campus to choose from.
It is important to remember to register for the MENPRA-course and pay the semester fee by 1st September, even when you are in work placement.
