If you took on a placement during your course how did you feel this helped you in your career/ with your studies?

In the course of my education, there was an option for advanced practice, which allowed me to work full-time in some field where I would confront real-life obstacles. I was able to manage this internship at one of the world's major companies entirely on my own. I worked as a supply chain coordinator with Accor for four months, and it was an incredible experience. Such kinds of opportunities help a student become more motivated and inspired and offer them an enormous head start in terms of establishing a career. By following the internship, a student can secure a permanent position in that organisation.

What was the best thing about your course?

The most enjoyable element of my degree was when students from every department were brought to a two-day residential programme. It was an unforgettable experience for me.

What did you enjoy most about your time at Northumbria University?

My advanced practice period.

How would you describe your time at Northumbria in three words?
