Frontrunners
What is the Frontrunners project?
Frontrunners is the University's unique placement scheme which gives
students the opportunity to undertake meaningful employment around campus
and develop the higher-level skills necessary to compete for the best jobs.
The scheme is open to all University of Essex students, offers on-the-job
training, and is paid. Placements are between 3 and 12 months in length and
up to 12 hours per week.
Frontrunners also supports students in developing their ability to
reflect on and articulate the skills they have acquired.
