What is a Graduate Apprenticeship?
100% of our Graduate Apprentices recommend the apprenticeship over a traditional degree.
Graduate Apprenticeships (GA) are an alternative route for school and college leavers to attaining a degree. Our Software Engineering degree programme a strong student experience through our 8-week learning blocks, in addition to work-based learning (and a salary!). We also flex on the standard UofG entry grades, opening it up to more students. This is a fantastic opportunity for students for whom Maths, Sciences and ICT related subjects are their strong point and area of interest.
