2013 UCL Advances Internship Programme
We fund a full-time intern in London-based SMEs for approximately 8 weeks each summer. Funding is limited so companies have to apply, showing how the experience will expose the intern to all facets of how a small and medium sized enterprise operates.
What is it?
Especially designed to help students gain real-life workplace experience and entrepreneurial skills, and back by popular demand, UCL Advances (UCL’s centre for entrepreneurship and business interaction) is re-launching their business support initiative called ‘SIP’ (the UCL Student Internship Programme).

Who is it for?
This
programme is open to any London micro, small or medium enterprise with less
than 250 employees (including start ups, third sector and social enterprises) and
any level UCL student (or very recent graduate).
The benefits
Students get paid for worthwhile work experience (£250 per week tax free) which will aid professional development, enhance their CV and could possibly lead on to a permanent job.
Businesses get a high calibre student or graduate to work with them, free of charge for 8 weeks, who could possibly turn out to be a future employee! This programme is one of a range of enterprise support services offered by UCL Advances designed to aid growth and development.
