Work placements part-way through a degree course are an important part of the career development of graduate engineers.
The IED offers a service in support of the placement programmes of the Universities offering placements arising from contacts with IED members and acting as a clearing house whereby Universities can fill places offered to them which they are not able to offer to their own students.

Wayne HoneybunI am currently studying MSc Design Engineering at Middlesex University and as part of my course and means of further developing my skills, seek to find a 12 week placement within an engineering based company. The multi disciplinary, IED accredited course encapsulates many aspects of both theoretical and practical engineering, ensuring I have a broad knowledge and skill base to see a project through from concept to production. Before coming to Middlesex I gained a 2:1 in BSc (Hons) Product Design and Engineering at the University of Wales, Institute Cardiff. I am an extremely enthusiastic and competent individual, with a passion for practical problem solving and hands on design. My main interests lie in automotive, structural, civil and mechanical engineering although I am open to all sectors of engineering and have brief experience of working within a multitude of different engineering based organisations. I am willing to work anywhere in the UK as well as abroad and hold a British passport as well as a full, clean UK driving licence. Due to my academic timetable, the placement would need to commence around the 2nd of February 2009 and last for a minimum of 12 weeks during which my entire time and efforts would be directed towards the placement. I have attached my CV for a more comprehensive over view of my background and education. |
Ronan SalaünI am an apprentice engineer in the field of Mechanical Engineering in Nantes France. For my training course, I am required to do a work placement in an international company. I have particularly been attracted by your firm about industrial activity that your practice. I am studying in the Industrial Engineering Institute (I.T.I.I.) of Pays de la Loire, in the west of France where I am following a three-year course to become a mechanical engineer. With my training, I can adapt to many different sectors of activity. In fact, I can carry out a technical study, adapt a technical solution and carry out overall drawings. I also have skills in computer assisted design and structural analysis behaviour (CATIA V5, AUTOCAD, ABAQUS and MATLAB). An eight-week placement is a compulsory part of the course but I am very enthusiastic also about the potential for experiencing a different work and general culture. The aim is also to improve my English and obtain the Toeic level necessary to pass my engineering diploma. I would be delighted to be able to spend these two months in your company, contributing to your activity in any way I can. If you are interested in my application for a placement I would be happy to talk to you on the phone about the arrangements and possible small projects I could do for you. I enclose a brochure also of my school (I.T.I.I.). |
