Professional Placements and Internships

A key part of a Cass degree course is the opportunity to gain experience working for a leading organisation.

You may take either a short-term internship during the vacations or a year-long professional placement. If you take the professional placement, your degree will become a four-year sandwich programme.

Both options enable you to gain the professional experience valued by graduate employers and many of our students go on to work for their internship or placement employers, after graduating.

Maximilan Link‘Cass’s reputation for excellence and professionalism is an advantage when applying for internships, placements and graduate positions. It helped me to secure an internship at Merrill Lynch last summer. From day one I was able to apply the theoretical knowledge I’d learned, to the practical problems I faced – and my mentor was impressed by my understanding.’
