Placement Opportunities

Our undergraduate student placement programme is designed to give you the opportunity to make an impact on the digital experience at Queen’s University, working on projects that matter to our students and staff. You will get the chance to work with teams across the University, as well as business partners, with opportunities to develop your skills under the guidance of experienced professionals. So who are we looking for?

We are looking for team players who can demonstrate leadership skills and attention to detail to deliver a high standard of work. We need people with excellent problem-solving and analytical skills enabling them to identify problems quickly and make the appropriate adaptions. And they should have the confidence to communicate effectively with stakeholders along with the planning and organisation skills that will ensure they can meet deadlines.
