Placement or Study Abroad Information

There is the opportunity in this program to participate in our work-placement scheme, to develop transferable and professional skills through an internship or placement (paid or unpaid) in an enterprise relevant to Electrical, Electronic or Microelectronic Engineering. Many of our students have successfully obtained paid work-placements with some of the world’s best known high-tech companies who have facilities in the Cork area.

The School of Engineering has a close relationship with large UCC research institutions such as the Tyndall National Institute and MaREI, the SFI Research Centre for Energy, Climate and the Marine. Staff from these institutions teach into many of the programmes in the School of Engineering and supervise several research projects each year.

Where the opportunity arises, a research project or work placement may be carried out outside Ireland.
