Placements and work experience in Cambridge School of Art

Getting 'work experience' is easy, isn't it? You just pick up your brush or sit down with your design software and create something wonderful.

But the real working world is increasingly competitive, and the kind of skills and experience you need to stand out as an employee, or succeed in self-employment, involve diverse transferable abilities. It also helps to have a contact or two in the sector, who already see your potential.

As one of our Cambridge School of Art undergraduates, you'll have the chance to seek a work placement on our 'Working with the Creative industries' module, as well as discovering opportunities to gain crucial experience, skills and exposure through industry-led activities such as live briefs.
