You can choose to add an optional professional work placement year to many of the postgraduate courses at Kingston University. The placement year is an excellent way to gain valuable work experience and is an opportunity to develop the skills employers are looking for. The placement option is available for both home and international full-time students.
You must find and secure your own placement, but you can make use of the University's career support services to help you. The placement will be undertaken after the taught portion of your course.

The work placement is an assessed part of the course. If you are an international student, you will need a two-year visa to cover both the taught part and the work placement component of your course.
