Select Partnership Scheme
Select is a pioneering scheme that takes advantage of our strong partnerships with local, national, and international engineering companies. Hosted annually, the Select event brings together engineers at all stages of their careers through speed interviews and networking.
Our students are always keen to meet professionals and industry experts to discuss opportunities, gain further industry insight, and improve their employability skills. Participating in the Select event will help you build connections with the next generation of engineering talent and to network with our students, academics, and researchers.
33 companies participated in the Select Partnership Scheme 2024, connecting with enthusiastic students in nearly 300 speed interviews!
