Applying for Internships

Internships are a great way for students at The University of Stirling Management School to gain relevant experience that helps their future career prospects. Internships also provide the experience and subject matter for final year dissertation projects. However, with fierce competition for every position, many students spend significant time and effort applying for internships only to be disappointed.

The Management School is conducting a study into the issues students face in applying for internships to find out how we can do more to help them secure the positions they need. The aim of the project is to help third year undergraduates as they transition into their final year, as well as assisting their transition into employment after graduation.
