Studying Software Engineering on the UofG Graduate Apprenticeship

Our programme has been carefully devised with industry, creating an optimum balance between university and work, ensuring our apprentices benefit from the best of both worlds.Like a traditional degree our Software Engineering GA is a four year programme and students graduate with a BSc (Hons). Why choose a GA at UofG:

• Make a difference from the start, with hands on work experience on live projects
• Earn a good salary (at least living wage) and fees are still covered by SAAS
• Apply directly to Partner Employers, so UCAS applications are not affected
• Diverse Partner Employers from start-ups to household names like Barclays and the BBC
• Best of both worlds as a team member at work and student at university
• Learn from an award-winning teaching team
