This provides the opportunity for you to gain valuable real-world experience and to build contacts in the industry.

An extensive range of support services are available to help you get ready for work and to find employment.

PSW Opportunity

What is the UK post-study work visa for graduates?

The UK post-study work visa allows international students to stay in the United Kingdom after graduation in order to find work, for up to 2 years.

The new visa rules will come into effect for all international students that begin their studies in autumn 2020 or later. During the first 2 years after graduation, PSW visa holders can work in any job they can find, and the goal is for them to transition into a general work visa afterwards.

The opportunity to stay and work for 2 years after graduation makes the UK an attractive destination for students seeking to start their international career. Few other countries in Europe offer such good conditions for their foreign students.
