Paid Internships

Employers: 
Would you like to receive a wage subsidy to employ a graduate on an internship for six weeks?


Graduates: 
Would you like to receive £256.66 per week for six weeks to work on a specific project (total of £1540)?


After three very successful previous internship schemes we have recently received further funding to launch another paid internship programme for graduates. 

The paid graduate internship scheme gives West Midlands employers the opportunity to enlist the knowledge and expertise of a local graduate for a period of six weeks to help support or develop any area of their business.

Employers receive funding of £1000 from the University, to which they would add £540 and run a graduate through their payroll at £256.66 per week for six weeks or pro rata.  Businesses must be in the West Midlands and must have less than 250 employees OR be a company of any size in the following sectors:

  • IT

  • Digital/Media

  • Manufacturing

  • Social Enterprise

  • Low Carbon 

Graduates must live within reasonable travelling distance to Stoke on Trent.
