Working in the Community

The 樱花动漫 campuses, both in Devon and Cornwall, have a marked impact on the economics and demographics of the regions they inhabit, and play a significant part in defining their respective regional identities. In acknowledgement of this relationship, the University is in the process of establishing 3 Civic University Agreements with Exeter, Cornwall and Devon and Torbay.

The University's civic engagement mission statements can be found here, and you will find that you will be able to search for opportunities in which align with these.

Gaining work experience or volunteering in the local area has many benefits for both you and the community. Here are some of the benefits that you may gain:

• Development of skills that could benefit you not only once you graduate and find a job, but also during your academic studies.
• Development of key skills and experiences which could support you when applying for future jobs such as creating CVs, writing applications, interviewing etc.
• Gaining an understanding of workplace culture
• Help with future career decision making by understanding what sorts of work you like, and what sorts you don’t
• Give back to the community that you live in while you’re studying
• Meet new people and build your network to help support future job searches
• Build your awareness of industry and sector challenges
• Use your expertise and fresh insight to positively benefit the organisation
• Be part of solving real-life issues affecting the organisation and community
