Strategic partnerships
How does our strategic partnerships work?
We are committed to establishing rich long-term strategic partnerships that are mutually beneficial to the University and the external organisation.
Our unique approach ensures a level of commitment from both parties but is designed to be flexible because we appreciate the changing needs and demands of industry.
An external organisation will agree to achieve a number of objectives over a two-year period (attend our recruitment events, provide work experiences etc) and in exchange we work closely with you to understand your skills needs, share our course development ideas and help raise your company's brand to our students and graduates.
We identify a single point of contact to enable all of your interactions with the School and University to be as easy as possible then follow-up with regular bi-monthlies to support the relationship and plan for the year.
If you are interested in becoming a strategic partner we would love to hear from you.
