Are you a local business who would be in a position to offer an Industrial Placement Year and/or summer internship, specifically for engineering and/or computing students starting in summer 2026? If so, our Placements in Yorkshire Networking Event could be the perfect option for you!
Placements in Yorkshire, is an event which has been successfully delivered over the past 7+ years, and focuses on linking companies from the local region, with engineering and computing students from the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Sheffield.
You will have the opportunity to speak with our students on a 1-1 basis about your placement opportunities on offer, and answer any questions they might have.
Our Placements in Yorkshire event is well received by employers.
I would just like to say thank you very much for the opportunity to attend last night's event and meet the students face to face.
We all thought the event was well organised and very well attended. I have already received some CVs and will be considering them in due course.Primemetals
