- business simulations
- enterprise initiatives
- student-led voluntary work

**Applied learning - Work placements**
You will have the opportunity to arrange a year-long work placement in between your second and third years. This gives you a real-world experience to prepare you for your future career. Previous students have gained paid placements at companies such as IBM, Adidas, Marks & Spencer and Disney. Over half our work placement students are being offered permanent posts with their placement organisations after they graduate.
**Live projects**
Throughout the course, you'll be expected to apply your knowledge to real-world situations. You'll take part in business simulations, have the opportunity to undertake voluntary and part-time work for academic credits, and will produce a fully-fledged product development proposal.
**Networking opportunities**
Sheffield Hallam's Marketing Student Society, of which you will become an automatic member, is one of the few such societies in the country to have links to the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM). This will allow you superb networking opportunities, with masterclasses and links to business professionals in Sheffield and elsewhere.
