It is my favourite sport, and there are some great sailing opportunities on offer here. A highlight was winning the University National Keel Boat Championships, which was a great achievement. I recently completed a three-month internship working with Sir Ben Ainslie at LandRover BAR in Portsmouth, where I was part of the sustainability team. It has been good to get some valuable work experience early on in my degree. I have been thinking of going into a career involved with composite materials or renewable energies, and my internship at BAR has given me an insight into these areas, and has definitely grown my interest.” 8 9 Our graduates CHOOSE SOUTHAMPTON: are targeted by the top 100 Become graduate recruiters Become a a student in the country community DESIGN YOUR OWN ambassador volunteer EDUCATION Experience SOUTHAMPTON:CHOOSE Your courses are developed and taught by world experts. an internship or work Your course offers you breadth as well as depth placement Be independent and shape your course GET AHEAD As well as attending lectures and seminars, you can access FOR YOUR many lectures and learning resources on the move CAREER We work with you to make programmes more flexible Network Take advantage of the Southampton opportunity; get involved in with top many extra-curricular activities to enhance your experience Wi-Fi employers at DESIGN YOUR OWN EDUCATION across all our careers fairs campuses 3 million books, journals and reports in Advice our libraries from your 24-HOUR Laboratory personal ACCESS TO study tutor Interactive online VIRTUAL discussions LEARNING 50,000 Meet people e-books from more than 135 countries Study abroad Our Enabling INNOVATIVE SOCIAL Services team provides support LEARNING when you LIFE need it Group project work Socialise in our bars Field and cafés trips Online Join one of over assessment Optional 350 clubs SCAN THIS PAGE Option to modules outside and societies TO GET A TASTE learn a your area OF LIFE AT THE language for CUTTING EDGE free available to of study (see page 2) all students 10 11 GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES GLOBAL OPPORTUNITIES GLOBAL As a Southampton student you will have the chance to develop the professional skills and global awareness that employers are really looking for, through studying abroad and doing a work placement.
