Can I attend?
IEUK is for first, second and penultimate year students who are currently working towards their first undergraduate bachelor’s degree in the UK. You can take part if you’re:
- Graduating from your first undergraduate degree or integrated Master's in 2027, 2028, 2029, 2030, OR
- Starting a Master's degree in autumn 2026 after graduating from your first undergraduate degree in the summer of 2026, OR
- Starting your first undergraduate degree or integrated Master's in September 2026
- 18 years or older
This year’s programme is focused on entry-level candidates who have little to no professional work experience. You may have done an internship or insight week, or had a part-time/temporary role in customer service or similar, but you haven’t started a full-time graduate role yet. The programme is designed to give you a first step into the professional world whilst you complete your degree.
All degree backgrounds are welcome. Just bring your curiosity and an interest in exploring the different career paths available to you.
I've done IEUK before. Will this year be the same?
Each year's experience is completely unique, so if you did the experience last year or the year before, we recommend taking part again. All the sessions will be different, plus we'll have more employers joining us and you'll complete a new Sector Skills Project. There are even more features this year to help you make the most of the experience.
What if I have another question?
For a full list of commonly asked questions about the experience, take a look at our IEUK FAQs page.
