Selecting the right stream

We offer two types of placement:

Summer Placements - 8 to 16 weeks (between the months of June and September)
Industrial Placements – 16 to 48 weeks

Our placements are designed for undergraduates in the penultimate year of their degree, with some opportunities for postgraduates.

When applying for an undergraduate position online, you must first select the stream that best suits your career aspirations, your subject of study and your skills. This will help us find a suitable project for you (please note that most opportunities are in the Professional Services & Customer Experience and ICT streams).

Professional Services & Customer Experience

This stream is focused on putting customers at the heart of the business. Roles are available in areas such as project management, business improvement, business development and management consultancy.

ICT

This is our technical stream, with projects available in areas such as software development, research and network engineering.

Functional Specialist

This stream allows you to gain experience in one of four areas - Human Resources, Marketing, Finance or Procurement & Supply Chain. (please note, most opportunities are available in the other two streams).

Once you've selected a stream, we'll look at your skills and study subject to find a project within that stream that we feel best suits you.

We'll make sure that you get all the support you need to make a real difference to your project, and support any academic requirements of your placement.

As BT is a flexible organisation with opportunities across the UK and Ireland, we also ask you to select up to three locations where you'd be happy to work.
