University students will boost their skills, experience and income this summer thanks to a new paid placement scheme being delivered by HS2’s construction partner, Balfour Beatty VINCI.
Thirty students from eleven universities, including University of Birmingham, University of Manchester and University College London, have been selected to start the 8-week programme supporting HS2’s construction.
The placements were advertised to undergraduates who are from the Midlands or studying subjects at Midlands-based universities that align to the skillsets Balfour Beatty VINCI needs to build its 90km section of the HS2 route.
Balfour Beatty VINCI recognise the value of harnessing local talent and its new undergraduate scheme builds on existing partnerships with universities in the Midlands. It has already supported students from Birmingham City University into employment in their chosen subject straight after graduating, and it hopes more students will now benefit as a result.
Among those joining the summer placement programme this week is Abdillah Masoud from Coventry who is studying Civil Engineering at University College London.
Also joining the programme is Habeebah Ahmed from Walsall who is studying Civil Engineering at the University of Manchester.
