Internships
Graduate Business Partnerships
If you are a recent graduate, or are completing a degree this year at any British university, you could be eligible for the University of Exeter’s Graduate Business Partnership (GBP) scheme.
Through the GBP scheme we put graduates with host organisations to undertake paid work placements on real business projects. More than 70% of graduates are retained by their host organisation at the end of their placement, either on a permanent or extended contract.
All placements are located in the south west of England (usually in Devon, Cornwall or Somerset) with a wide range of employers, from large organisations such as Councils, the NHS and utility companies, to small and medium sized companies.
Types of internship vary, but usually cover a variety of roles, such as marketing, IT, web development, PR, technical or environmental issues, engineering, market research, business planning, accounts and sales.
