WHAT'S AN UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMME LIKE AT JLR
With the chance to make a real impact, learn from industry experts and build a professional network, a JLR Undergraduate Programme provides a strong foundation for future success.
Undergraduate programmes are geared towards university students studying in the penultimate year of their degree or integrated master’s course. Our undergraduate placements allow real-life applications of degree content over 12 months. An experience that can provide a competitive advantage in a fierce graduate market.
In addition, the personal and professional skills developed throughout a placement will enhance workplace skills to support future career development. A placement is great for any student looking to take their first steps into a professional role, allowing them to experience a particular career path and industry while building skills with reputable employers that will help them gain real-world knowledge they can apply in their final year and beyond.
What’s more, at JLR, when our undergraduates do well on placement, they are often offered a graduate role upon finishing their studies. This can save a considerable amount of time on applications and assessments in their final year – giving them more time to focus on achieving the best grade possible in their degree.
