Industry and partnerships
Partnerships, attachments, venture support and research collaboration.
Southlea works with employers to keep programmes relevant and to give students real experience.
Industry partnerships
We welcome partners who can contribute guest lectures, case studies, equipment, sponsorship or advisory input to our programmes in business, finance, supply chain, polymer and packaging engineering.
Work-integrated learning
Industrial attachment, live projects and business case simulations connect what students learn with the workplace. Organisations interested in hosting students on attachment are encouraged to get in touch.
Innovation and venture support
Students develop and test venture plans throughout their studies, supported by virtual incubator activities. Partners can mentor teams, judge competitions or co-develop ventures.
Research and consultancy
Our applied research in materials, packaging, financial technology and enterprise systems is available for collaboration. See Research.
