Leeds Trinity University Placements

Leeds Trinity University quietly delivers some of the strongest placement outcomes for international students, especially Indians, even though it never shouts about it. 

The secret is simple: every undergraduate degree comes with a compulsory professional work placement built into the course, usually in Year 2 or Year 3. Students don’t have to hunt for placements themselves; the university’s dedicated Employability Team lines them up with companies like Sky, BBC, NHS trusts, Deloitte, PwC, HSBC, Capita, and local Leeds giants such as Asda and Jet2. 

Many of these placements are paid (average £18,000-£22,000 pro-rata) and last 6-12 weeks, but quite a few stretch into year-long sandwich roles.

Because Leeds Trinity is only 15 minutes from Leeds city centre, students get access to the entire Yorkshire job market while living on a small, supportive campus. The latest graduate data shows 97 % of students are in employment or further study 15 months after graduation, and international students sit at exactly the same level because the placements are part of the degree, not optional extras. Nursing, Business, Journalism, Sport, and Psychology students regularly convert their placements into graduate jobs with the same employer.

Counsellors in Punjab, Haryana, and Uttar Pradesh see Leeds Trinity as a hidden gem for average-profile students (55-65 % marks) who want real UK work experience on their CV before they even graduate, plus the two-year Graduate Route visa afterwards. That combination is hard to beat at this tuition fee level.
