The motto of this programme will always be the same & through this initiative, ‘QMUL’ strives to help those students who exhibit a strong potential to become successful professionals in the future workplace irrespective of their background.
There’s no looking back for QMUL since 2015. Thereafter,in 2019 QMUL got enlisted its 1st ‘Chartered Manager Degree Apprenticeship in Social Change’ in the UK. In total, 319 apprentices enrolled for various programmes at QMUL out of which some of them are listed below.

Eileen O’Gara, (Head of Apprenticeship – Queen Mary University of London) said that the folks from the entire university are highly overjoyed in supporting both the employers & apprentices at the university. She also stated that it’s a proud moment for all of them as they’re continuing to expand the skills & career aspirations of their apprentices which could be further embedded in future industries easily.
Implementation of apprenticeship programmes has evolved the access of education all over the QMUL for the students. The management has also realised that providing flexible education & high-demand training to the employers has only helped out for those candidates who exhibit the potential to succeed alongside strengthening their career prospects for getting better job opportunities in future & blocking the skills gap in the UK industries.
In the above-stated context, QMUL will deliver advanced technical education with the help of state-of-the-art (London City Institute of Technology) in collaboration with Newham College to the apprentices. QMUL will also work with renowned firms,i.e, Siemens Mobility, Port of London Authority that would help them to grasp about the latest technologies along with its associated disadvantages which could hamper London’s development in Digital, STEM & Data Science. This would help the university to provide authentic learning material & career opportunities to the students.

According to her, everything feels so great from being a paid working individual with no debt & in return becoming a ‘Chartered Manager’ by the end of 4 years.
