LJMU’s Discovery Spring Internships programme is a new initiative to connect a first-year student with an employer in the Liverpool City Region.
We are seeking to match our first-year students, who may be new to the city and have little or no work experience, with employers able to offer a supportive environment to develop commercial awareness. This will allow students to engage in the workforce and connect to the subject they are studying in the real-world.
For example, a criminal justice or law student may attend a city law firm, or a psychology student work on an organisational HR project.
These internships are 70hrs in length and LJMU pays the full cost of wages and provides full support with advertising the opportunity, candidate selection, processing timesheets and payments to students via our Unitemps branch.
