The Research and Advisory Departments of the GWCT have a long-running association with teaching in UK universities. Although we are not a higher education institute (HEI) and therefore cannot award a degree to students, we can and do supervise students at three levels in the University system.

Undergraduates

Each year we accept placement or sandwich students to come and work with us for a year. BSc students take a year out between the end of their second year and the beginning of their third year to work in "industry", gain work experience and get a feel for working 9 to 5. We take about 14 students each year who work in our various departments, studying birds, insects, mammals and their management. We currently host students from the universities of Cardiff, Nottingham Trent, Plymouth (2), West of England and York.

For more details contact Julie Ewald or visit our undergraduate placements page.

Masters students

We provide half-day seminars (up to four hours) at the university plus field visits as appropriate. Seminars are tailored and prepared in consultation with the course tutors and mostly take place between October and March each academic year. Seminars are based on our science and present real conservation case studies of gamebird management, farmland ecology and the impacts of pesticides. The students have the opportunity to meet and engage with scientists and experienced practitioners personally involved in research projects, practical land management and conservation. They get access to real-life case studies of conservation working over large tracts of land.

Whilst the first two semesters are taught, masters students also have to spend the final semester (April-September) engaged on a research project. So each year we also produce up to 20 research protocols suitable for such projects. MSc students come and work with us, undertake their projects and are supervised by senior GWCT researchers. Our track record with masters students conducting their research projects with us is excellent. Students working with us rarely fail to achieve distinctions for their projects.

We maintain a list of masters research projects currently available. In recent years we have hosted projects from students from the universities of Leeds, Reading, Cardiff, Southampton and Imperial College, London.

For more details see our job opportunities page.

PhD students

We also supervise PhD students and currently have ten students at universities from Exeter to Nottingham, Queen Mary London to Sussex, studying with us.

We either act as CASE partners on Research Council grants; contribute 50% costs to a studentship, matched by the university; or even fund 100% of the costs ourselves. The first GWCT PhD was defended in 1980. We will soon see the defence of our 100th!

For more details contact Professor Nick Sotherton.

Agricultural universities and colleges

Our advisory staff give lectures to students at the county-based agricultural colleges and at the Royal Agricultural University, Cirencester and Harper Adams University in Shropshire. The college lectures are focused on game and wildlife management and include practical courses on snaring, use of rodenticides, etc.

For more details contact Lizzie Herring on lherring@gwct.org.uk.

Our successful internship programme is specifically designed for UK undergraduates (when applying) who are seeking to gain and develop employability skills, to ease the transition from study to work, increase skills and knowledge and to provide excellent networking and learning and development opportunities.

At West Suffolk Council our aim is to lead as an Employer of Choice, offering opportunities to those currently at university who are ambitious, hard-working, dedicated and who want to make a difference to our area and its community. Do not just take our word for it, meet our past interns and read about their experiences by visiting our internship page.

We offer both 12-week summer placements and a 39-40-week industrial placement depending on the placement across a diverse range of service areas. We aim to provide an insight into the way our council is run and the challenges we face and how these are managed on a day-to-day basis. If successful, you will work within a specific placement area, but will also work together as an intern team on a group project for the council.

All our 12-week internships start on 10 June 2024. The industrial placement has a flexible start date, however it is beneficial if it begins with the others in order to become part of the wider internship programme. These placements are perfect opportunities to invest in your future, gain vital work experience and unleash and showcase your potential to use in future job interviews! Our placements this year are:
Energy and Environment Families and Communities Green Spaces and Heritage Housing Options and Homelessness Strategic Property and Estates (Property)
Please indicate at the top of the additional information section of the application form which placements(s) you would be interested in. You may select up to three placements, in preference order. However, if you are interested in them all, please state this and ensure your application covers a range of skills and experience.

You can expect to be paid the National Living Wage, work a 37-hour week, be eligible to annual leave as and when accrued over the period you are employed, plus enjoy our employee benefits package with discounts on gym membership, cinema, shopping, travel and a whole lot more during your time with us.

We positively encourage agile working, with work being an activity we do, not a place we go. Work styles are led by operational and organisational need and are jointly agreed between the manager and employee. Therefore, whilst there will be opportunities to work from home or an alternative base, this role will require you to attend our offices in Bury St Edmunds or Mildenhall when required. You must be available throughout the first two weeks of the placement to undertake the induction period.

If you have any queries regarding a placement or application, please email samantha.knight@westsuffolk.gov.uk or telephone 01638 719334.

Cities and Regions - London and Belfast

Our Cities team helps organisations understand the structure of city and regional economies, how they might develop in the future, and the implications for their business and strategy. We do this via our subscription services and bespoke consultancy projects. Our global client base includes firms in the real estate sector, financial services and B2C companies, think tanks, government and public sector organisations.

Our subscription services provide data, forecasts and analysis for 8,000 cities, regions, and local economies across the world, covering a broad range of economic, demographic, income, and spending indicators. As a placement student in the Cities team, you will assist in producing these forecasts and support our economists in developing the breadth and depth of our services. This could include contributing to written reports or exploring novel approaches to data estimation, such as using satellite imagery to estimate regional activity.

Economists in our Cities team use our proprietary data and forecasts to undertake many bespoke consultancy projects. These range from estimating the impact of an investment or economic development policy on a city to undertaking detailed socioeconomic analysis for a local economy or supporting local economic planning and strategic analysis. As a placement student in the Cities team, you will contribute to all aspects of this project work, including developing methodologies, data collection and collation, modelling and report writing.

As a placement student in the Cities team, you will gain a deeper understanding of regional economics, why the economic performance of cities varies from national economies, and the drivers of urban development. You will develop technical skills across a range of software, including the MS Office suite, Eviews and other modelling packages, and mapping software such as QGIS.
Key responsibilities include: Testimonial
"I thoroughly enjoyed my placement year in the Cities team at Oxford Economics. Through working on a wide variety of projects for clients around the globe, I developed my understanding of real-world economics and improved my data analysis, mapping, and writing skills. Most importantly, it was an excellent launch pad for my career as I returned to the Cities team after graduating." Andrew Graham, former placement student

Global Industry - London
Job Summary
Our Global Industry team in our London office has a fantastic opportunity for a hard-working economics student on a one-year industrial placement.

Our team comprises 25 economists (some of whom are former placement students), each focused on a particular sector, such as energy generation and renewables, across the 77 countries we cover.

There are two placement student roles on our team. The students will provide support to the economists, forecast their own industries and contribute to monthly and quarterly reports. As the year progresses, placement students are given more interesting work, including forecasting some small macroeconomic countries, so long as they perform well in producing work and supporting the economists with work that has great attention to detail.

The placement students are assigned a sector to forecast every quarter, and they contribute with write-ups about their sector in our monthly and quarterly publications. The student also supports the commodities team in producing regular monthly reports. The industry team is involved in several regular and bespoke consultancy projects for a range of large industrial firms and trade associations, and our placement student is typically required to help with report writing and analysis. For example, previous placement students made a significant contribution in supporting our economists for our flagship Global Construction reports and were cited within the publication, while others have been able to write the front page piece of our monthly documents.

The learning curve can be steep in using our Global Economic and Global Industry models, but we provide training and support throughout the placement year. In addition, we encourage our placement students to learn as many new skills as possible, such as Python. This will give the chosen placement student valuable and practical knowledge related to the application of economics to real-world questions.
Key responsibilities include: What our past students say:
"The placement programme in the Global Industry team was excellent. I was able to apply my economic theory from my degree to real-life markets in both a micro and macro-economic landscape and learn the fundamentals behind forecasting, which is a highly valuable skill. The opportunities I was provided with to learn and work on a variety of projects were great. This ranged from coding to consulting experiences to writing research reports that were used by clients. The team was very friendly and very encouraging in supporting my personal development and placement experience. "

"My time as a placement student in the Global Macro/EM team at Oxford Economics helped me strengthen my understanding of economics and develop interpersonal and workplace skills. I was able to work on research on various topical macroeconomic issues, which enabled me to understand better economic channels and how countries react to changes in the economic atmosphere. Drafting research briefings and other publications taught me a different style of writing from what we learn at university, Overall, it was a wonderful experience and a great insight of what one would do if they chose to be an economist."

Additionally, you must be either:

A graduate with, or an undergraduate on track to achieve, a minimum 2:2 in any degree, or

A non-graduate with no more than one year's paid experience in the communications industry such as public relations, public affairs, marketing, stakeholder engagement, media, or other related fields.

Working in a fast-paced communications environment, you'll learn the essential skills you need to start your career in the industry.  You will have the opportunity to develop your written and verbal communication skills to reach a range of different audiences, including customers, the media, businesses, stakeholder groups and politicians.   As part of the team, you'll be involved from the outset in key projects, creating campaigns, influencing how customers use London's transport network and helping to shape TfL's reputation.

During your 11-month internship, you will collaborate with teams across the organisation and gain a solid understanding of London's transport network as well as building your skills in several specialities such as Public Relations, Public Affairs and Marketing.

You will be based in one of three teams, below, and may have the opportunity to undertake a placement in another area.

TfL Press Office
One of the UK's busiest press offices where you'll gain all the essential skills you need to start your career in Public Relations. You'll be involved in handling the big stories of the day affecting TfL as well as delivering dedicated stories and campaigns.  You'll learn the full range of Public Relations skills needed to work in the industry, from writing press releases, dealing with journalists and crisis handling to generating ideas for high profile campaigns and organising media events. These could include campaigns to tackle sexual harassment on public transport, Art on the Underground or Poppy Day.

Where this career can take you

The programme has been highly successful, and our interns have gone on to work in Communications in both the public and private sector organisations, including to some senior positions, as varied as the NHS, the Met Police, the Arts Council and TfL.

About the Stuart Ross Internship

The Stuart Ross Communications Internship was set up in 2006 and is a diversity initiative and training opportunity targeted at increasing the number of people from under-represented groups entering in the Public Relations, Communications and Marketing industries.

The internship was named after TfL's former director of news Stuart Ross, who passed away in 2016. Stuart was a passionate supporter of the scheme from its inception and was a key part of its success.

Due to the success of the scheme and TfL's continued commitment to diversity, in 2018 TfL expanded the scheme to include new diversity internships in public affairs and marketing.

The opportunity for those from ethnic minorities and/or having a disability to apply for the scheme is aligned with the positive action provisions of the Equality Act 2010. This allows for an employer to take certain actions where people who share a protected characteristic, such as being of a certain ethnic minority, are under-represented in participating in a particular activity. The Government guide to Positive Action in the Workplace sets out further detail on Section 158 ((General) positive action) of the Equality Act at Sections 8-9.

As a public sector body, TfL is required by Section 149 of the Equality Act 2010 to advance the Public Sector Equality Duty, by which we must not only take steps to eliminate discrimination, harassment and victimisation on grounds of protected characteristics, but must also seek to advance equality of opportunity between persons who share a relevant protected characteristic and those who do not share it.

The Internship is also open to applicants from a disadvantaged socio-economic background to further support widening access to a career in Public Relations, Public Affairs or Marketing.

"I started my journey with Gist when I joined the Operations Management Industrial Placement scheme in Thatcham. Since finishing my Business Management degree at Cardiff University, I have returned to Gist to join as an Operations Management Graduate at Hemel Maylands. My current job role is a Warehouse Team Manager.

I was unsure about what sort of role I would like to go into but knew an Operations Management placement would give me the opportunity to learn about logistics, as well as gain the confidence to manage a team of people.

During my time at Gist my people management skills have developed the most; when I first started, the idea of managing people who were older and more experienced than myself terrified me. After a lot of support from other managers, managing a warehouse of operations quickly became second nature.

Moving from Thatcham to Hemel Maylands has allowed me to experience a different contract which will set me up well for my future career, and I can't wait to work in other parts of the business.

I was surprised at how much responsibility I was given at Gist, even as a placement student. While at Thatcham, I had my own team of operatives which allowed me to develop my management style.

For anyone wanting to apply to Gist, my main tip would be to remain people-focused. Showing your interest in people and their development throughout the interview process will set you apart. Good Luck!"

My project in Korolevu has been incredible. It's been so different to anything you could ever imagine, and for that reason I'm so grateful to Think Pacific for the opportunity. Coming to Fiji has been one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'll cherish my experiences for the rest of my life.

Luke Baldwin, Leeds University

Become a member of a Fijian family and work within a team whilst contributing to sustainable development initiatives that support the achievement of the Fiji National Development Plan.

Our projects in Fiji are truly unique. They take place in rural communities which are a world away from the usual crowds and the average volunteer projects. The villages in Fiji are only accessible upon invitation by the chief only, which means you can sample a way of life that few people will ever be fortunate enough to see.

Our projects in Bali offer you the opportunity to supercharge your CV by completing a professional internship or placement for our inspiring partners, which includes a collection of hand-picked local NGOs, businesses and social enterprises.

Whilst living in a traditional Balinese village and immersing into the local culture, you can promote positive Mental Health or complete an internship for partners across a range of sectors.

Work experience

Some environmental science degrees have a placement year option, providing the opportunity to gain practical industry experience, increase your skills and develop a network of contacts. There may also be the option to undertake shorter placements and field trips during your course. Larger organisations and companies often run summer internships. There will be lots of competition for places, so be sure to apply early.

Getting involved in relevant clubs and societies while you're at university is helpful for gaining experience and adding to your CV. Look for opportunities to take up volunteering roles with conservation organisations or become active in helping campaigning groups in your local area.

Some students attend conferences and debates on environmental concerns, subscribe to relevant magazines and journals or go travelling. All these experiences will make you more attractive to an employer.

It also demonstrates your commitment to a particular area of work. Voluntary work can also lead to employment, in some cases.

Further study

Some environmental science graduates choose to undertake postgraduate study in order to specialise in a particular area of interest. Others take further qualifications to enter a particular sector such as environmental health, where an accredited degree, degree apprenticeship or postgraduate qualification in environmental health is a requirement.

Some graduates are supported by their employers to undertake further study and gain directly relevant professional qualifications.

It's also possible to undertake further study to qualify to become a teacher or to start a career in academic research or lecturing.

Behind every community lies built and natural environments which shape the way we live our lives. Planning is the art of making places, considering how these places work and the impact they have on our environment. It is about providing homes, not housing. People need places to live but also to work, learn, care and enjoy. This is the role of a planner.

Our new graduate scheme, Pathways to Planning, will equip talented individuals to fast track their career as a planner in local government. Graduates will be placed in a local council planning team where they will work full time for a minimum of three years, learning on the job and studying part-time on an RTPI accredited Master's course. They will receive paid time off to study, varied work experience and mentoring to help boost their career.
Details

Graduates will work full time and receive a starting salary of £26,000, plus London weighting (if relevant).

The programme includes a fully-funded MA or MSc in Planning with paid time off work to study.

All Pathways councils will offer a three-year work contract as a minimum.

We are looking for individuals from a diverse range of backgrounds who want to become the planners of the future, representing and delivering change for their communities. You don't need to have a relevant degree or work experience, as our application process will measure your natural potential and uncover planners who are made for the job.

Applications for the next cohort will open at the start of 2024. If you wish to express your interest in the scheme and sign up for updates, complete the form below.

The UWE Bristol Employability Bursary aims to support lower-income UK undergraduate students to access a range of activities. This aims to add value to your student experience and help you achieve a better graduate outcome.

There are 500 bursaries of up to £1,000 (depending on activity type) available in the academic year 2022 to 2023. The bursary is allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Route is for international students who want to work following the successful completion of a course of study at UK bachelor's degree-level or above.

The new Graduate route will open for applications on 1 July 2021, allowing the UK to retain the brightest and the best international students to continue to contribute to society and the economy post-study.

International students must have completed an eligible course at a UK higher education provider, with a track record of compliance with the government's immigration requirements to apply to the Graduate route. Students on the Graduate route will be able to work or look for work after their studies for a maximum period of 2 years, or 3 years for Doctoral students.

The launch of the new Graduate route shows that the government is continuing to deliver on its key manifesto promise to implement a points-based immigration system, which will attract talent and ensure that businesses can recruit the most highly qualified from across the globe to drive the economy forwards.

The Graduate route will work for all corners of the UK, ensuring that communities in England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland can benefit from talented individuals who want to stay after their studies.

Minister for Future Borders and Immigration Kevin Foster said:

As we rebuild from the global pandemic we want the world's brightest talent, who aspire to a career at the highest levels of business, science, the arts and technology to see our United Kingdom as the natural place to fulfil their aspirations.

The changes announced today will ensure once they have received a gold standard qualification from one of our world leading education institutions they can easily secure the status they need to continue living, working and fulfilling their dreams in the UK.

As detailed in the Immigration Rules laid in Parliament today (4 March), the new route will open for applications on 1 July 2021, to international students who successfully complete a degree at undergraduate level or above in the UK.

The Graduate route will be unsponsored, meaning applicants will not need a job offer to apply for the route. There will be no minimum salary requirements nor caps on numbers. Graduates on the route will be able to work flexibly, switch jobs and develop their career as required.

The new route will help the government to achieve the ambition set out in the International Education Strategy to increase the number of international students in higher education in the UK to 600,000 by 2030.

Coronavirus concessions for students unable to travel to the UK due to the pandemic have also been extended, recognising the continuing disruption many face due to international travel restrictions.

Applicants who began their studies in Autumn 2020 will now have until 21 June 2021 to enter the UK (updated from 6 April 2021) in order to be eligible for the Graduate route. Students who began their studies in January or February 2021 will need to be in the UK by 27 September 2021.

The Graduate route comes as the government also unveiled plans to launch another new immigration route that will help start-ups and fast-growing firms recruit the talent they need to innovate and grow at yesterday's Budget as part of a range of measures for highly skilled migrants. As part of the route, highly skilled migrants with a job offer from a recognised high-growth firm will qualify for a visa without the need for sponsorship or third-party endorsement.
