King's College London Placements

Campus placements are not a concept in UK universities. However, KCL has a careers and employability service that all students can sign up for which helps by giving advice on how to improve yourself as a job candidate and organizing several networking events for students to make connections. They are also able to help students secure part-time jobs during term time and will help students who approach them with employment queries. Overall, KCL has one of the highest employment rates for graduates all across the UK. Even within KCL, there are always several jobs advertised for research assistants and technicians which are open to all who meet the eligibility requirements. From the MSc Neuroscience graduates, most students go on to do Ph.D. in prestigious institutions. Some students pursue a medical degree after they complete the neuroscience degree and others go on to work in pharmaceutical and other science-based industries. The average salary for a neuroscience graduate is 30,000 GBP which is eligible for the increase. After a Ph.D., the salary can increase to 40,000-50,000 GBP.

No. I am focusing on applying for Ph.D. programs.

There are great placement opportunities at major firms such Pfizer etc. They look at your first year score and predicted 2nd year score. There is great guidance from the faculty towards achieving these placements.

no

King's is leading in research and has many opportunities. Intercalated BSc and Masters is pushed for and undertake a research project whilst on the medical curriculum

More integrated curriculum with placement earlier on, rather than 3 years of pure science which I would not have enjoyed. London life seemed fun and exciting.

As a medical student, we are pretty much guaranteed a foundation doctor job in the NHS in the UK

I chose King's College London for various reasons - its global and national ranking for Medicine at the time of application, reputation of the school, quality of education as well as benefit on studying in a city like London

The research opportunities are quite a lot as compared to internships placement within my course especially.

King's was one of the dream colleges and the uni and programme is quite highly ranked in QS/ US news ratings. London seemed like the perfect city to explore and live in as a student.

Again, I am a PhD student and this is not applicable to me. Under my SHEAR Studentship, I do have to apply for an internship but I have not searched for any.

I did not choose the university. I chose the project and the professor(s). I was okay to be in any university which has a good global ranking and was based in UK or USA or New Zealand. I was open to applying for any university providing me with a funded opportunity to work on my interests under supervisors who have a good h-index.

The flexible design of the course means that you can focus your studies on the elements of digital culture that most interest you, including digital marketing and services, mobile technologies, digital journalism, coding, data analytics, and beyond. Combining a theoretical emphasis with practical work, we aim to give you the opportunity to work alongside computer scientists and data analysts, with the capacity to critically understand the social, political, and economic dimensions of our digital lives.

Location, Rank, Course are good.

Very good since we get work experience in 3 of the busiest hospitals in London - Guy's, King's, and St. Thomas' Hospitals. As long as we pass our final exams, all medical students are guaranteed a job by the NHS.

It's one of the top universities for Medicine in the UK. It's also one of the few universities that allow dissections (students dissecting bodies) rather than a prosection (a professor or clinician dissecting the body and students observe). The university is also in central London which was a great pro since I wanted to move to a city. This is also one of the few universities where students can start their medicine degree even if they're under 18, which was my case.

Name and status of the university for the interest of future employment, course applied to me and my interests personally and especially in further years. Balance of coursework and exams works in my favour.

I found the opportunity to live in London exciting. I think that King's College London is a reputable institution. I have heard good reviews about the student experience, the teaching staff, and the extracurriculars.
