Company projects

Work collaboratively with our postgraduate students from Birmingham Business School, as an extension of your team, on a company project.

We have redesigned postgraduate degrees to include the option for students to complete a company project, replacing the traditional dissertation. Consider proposing a project to our postgraduate students to complete. Whether you have limited resources, need specialised knowledge, or if you wish to use this project as a soft recruitment exercise.

Students will have had expert teaching supported by industry specialists, who will supervise them throughout the project.

  • The projects will run between June and September to coincide with the academic year.
  • Students will have a total of up to 140 hours to work on the project. This is equivalent to approximately 20 hours per week for 7 weeks.
