Work experience as you study

You can work during the University holidays or part-time during the year to gain valuable experience. We offer many exclusive short-term internships with a range of employers and there are often opportunities across campus too. 

Volunteering is another way to develop valuable skills alongside your language degree. At Leeds there are plenty of opportunities to get involved — including being on the committee for your halls of residence, working on a Leeds University Union community project or volunteering for a charity in the Leeds vicinity.
