Study for a fully funded degree at the University of Dundee with the support of your current employer.
Would you like to gain new skills and experience by studying for a degree but are worried about the costs involved and the potential of having to leave your job?
The University of Dundee wants to help you overcome these barriers, by offering you a fully funded place on its Graduate Apprenticeship Programme.
Funded by Skills Development Scotland, you will spend one day per week studying at the university and the rest of the week working in your role, with the full support of your employer.
This allows you to develop both your skills and practical experience at the same time.
Think you are too old to be an apprentice? Graduate Apprenticeships are open to everyone over the age of 16, with people of all ages, backgrounds and levels of experience currently studying on the University of Dundee’s programme.
Described as the ‘best way to study’ by Graduate Apprentice Kyle Baptie, a Graduate Apprenticeship can help you take your career to the next level.
You can choose to study one of the following subjects:
- Business Management
- Civil Engineering
- Engineering, Design and Manufacturing
- IT Management
- IT Software Development
At the end of four years, you will leave with the same level of degree as someone who studies full time, with the added bonus of four years industry experience.
Catherine Reid, Business Management Graduate Apprentice, has experienced the benefits of the programme for herself.
Catherine said: “The Graduate Apprenticeship programme offers you an excellent opportunity to progress within your workplace and opens a lot of doors.
“You also gain an understanding of multiple topics that may benefit your organisation.”
As the programme is fully funded by Skills Development Scotland there is no student debt for you and no additional costs for your employer.
Sounds great right?
With the next courses starting in October and places limited, there is no better time to contact the university to find out more.
