A lot of people choose to study at UTS because they get real industry experience as part of their degree - and that means their job prospects when they finish studying are better than average.
Workplace experience is when you go out and work in your field or industry while you're still a student. It's an important part of almost every degree at UTS. Your lecturers help you to find the right position - somewhere you can work with other people, be a part of the team and get paid like everyone else! Your classes back at UTS then help you to understand your real-world experiences, and to see the bigger picture...
It's a great way to get confident and find out what it's like working in your industry, what you're good at and what you want to do when you finish studying.
You'll also make contact with the people who can help you develop your career later on. A lot of UTS students are offered jobs after they complete their workplace experience.
So by the time you finish your degree and you want to start your career, you've already got contacts and real-life skills and knowledge to show potential employers.
