Work Experience
We believe that by combining academic and practical development,
you will realise your full potential as an EBS London
student.
All students on the BA (Hons) degrees are required
to complete a minimum of 36 weeks of work
experience during their summer and winter
vacations. Internships can be carried out all over the world,
and in more than one language.
Your employability is important to us, and our unique
Career Planner programme will help you
develop your personal career strategy and equip
you with the skills you need to succeed. The Careers and Business Relations centre is on hand to
assist you throughout the whole process.
Working in real business situations before you graduate means
that you are able to explore career options, test theoretical
know-how, and learn the cultural conventions and sensitivities
unique to each country's business practices.
It allows you to develop your linguistic skills
in a real-life context, while building a valuable
network of contacts in a number of key
organisations within your target career markets.
Our graduates enter the employment market with a proven track
record of commitment and achievement in their work placements, and
a sound knowledge of how to put their skills to practical use. In
many cases they have so impressed their host companies during the
internships, that they already have several job offers prior to
graduation.
The pace is demanding and the challenges are real, but the
rewards in terms of personal fulfilment and career opportunities
are substantial. EBS London graduates are highly sought-after, and
graduate employment is consistently high.
