Internships

Internships are a valuable way to add a practical work based element to your degree. In an increasingly competitive job market, internships provide valuable work experience that will give students the edge in the application process. It is also a great opportunity to decide in which business sector you finally wish to work.

Finding an Internship

To help find the right internship, a wide range of free, tangible and online resources are available at the Resource Centre. A fortnightly Job Bulletin is also produced by the Careers Service and contains an informative section on internship opportunities currently avialble.

If you wish to undertake an internship, the Careers Service team will be happy to assist in finding the internship that is right for you. To make an appointment, you contact us on 020 7487 7767, via email at careers@regents.ac.uk or just drop by our office in Tuke 008.

Overseas Students – Work Permits:

Overseas students from non-EU countries do not require a work permit to take part-time and vacation work. A number of restrictions will apply:

The student must not work more than 20 hours a week during term time, except where a work placement or internship is to be undertaken as a necessary part of the course of study as agreed by the education institution.

Further clarification can be obtained from the Home Office UK Visa homepage.
