The SME Internship Scheme

Our funded SME Internship Scheme provides opportunities for you to work with our students.

The scheme provides paid work experience of 4 weeks (140 hours) with SMEs in the UK. The fund supports organisations whilst providing opportunities for internships.

Applicants are eligible if they are:

  • a current University of Bristol student
  • a University of Bristol alumnus who has graduated within the last 15 months.

If you are unsure about an applicant's eligibility, contact the SME Internships Team at careers-sme-engagement@bristol.ac.uk.

The team at the University is amazing, the SME Internship schemes are truly a blessing for start-up companies like ours. Our business greatly benefited from our partnership with the University.
