Training, Development and Support for You

Over the course of this 12-month programme, you'll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in hands-on learning, working on real-world challenges that directly impact the energy industry. You'll have a chance to apply your academic training to genuine industry problems while completing modules that contribute towards your degree.

Previous students on a Construction Management Industrial Placement have been involved in projects such as:

  • Supporting improvements to safety through communications campaigns, training and other improvement projects.
  • Looking at how radiation protection supports the building and operational life of new power stations, developing the skills necessary to support a wide range of teams in order to provide advice on radiation protection.
  • Assisting in running, maintaining, and developing the condition monitoring programme throughout a plant.

We're here to support you throughout the process, and you'll find helpful tips and advice here.

Your Work Location

You will be based at Hinkley Point C (HPC) construction site.

Who You Are
