Placement
University used to host career fairs in which different and most of the renowned companies used to visit. This helped all the students to know about the vacancies and opportunities out in the UK.
The factors that I considered were: Ranking, Modules, Fees, University's Career Network and Diversity.
Placement
I am not really sure about the placements per se. But I do get to see there are multiple fares and drives which help students in finding a job and network with people who would guide them in the process.
I went for an exchange program for 1 term (3 months) at Loughborough University, UK. 1. It has the largest campus in the whole of Europe, this is due to its focus on sports. It has multiple grounds. 2. It has the best sports management curriculum in the world. 3. The quality of the grounds is so good that the England International cricket team sometimes practices here. 4. The faculty is really friendly and the student Union organizes a lot of events.
Placement
The 3rd year is dedicated to either a placement year or study abroad. Students get the opportunity to expand their knowledge and put it into action. According to stats- 95% of students receive a job offer within 6 months of graduating- very high in those terms. The placement year helps students to prepare for a real-world job, and also gives them an edge against the competitors.
A year of work experience/ placements included in the bachelor's degree.
