Necip spent his<br />
placement at<br />
HM Treasury.<br />
<strong>Brunel</strong> was my first choice<br />
because it ticked every<br />
box that i was looking<br />
for in a university. it’s<br />
situated on a clean and<br />
stylish campus, it’s in<br />
Greater london, it has a<br />
reputation for producing<br />
strong economics<br />
graduates, and it offers<br />
economics students<br />
the opportunity to go<br />
on a work placement<br />
in the penultimate<br />
year of their studies.<br />
three years on and i’m<br />
thoroughly enjoying<br />
my time here. i recently<br />
finished a year at Hm<br />
treasury in the european<br />
economics team. as well<br />
as providing regular<br />
briefings for the Prime<br />
minister and chancellor<br />
(whom i had the<br />
opportunity to meet),<br />
i was given the role of<br />
housing market expert,<br />
producing high level<br />
research and presenting<br />
to an audience.<br />
the opportunity to<br />
undertake a placement<br />
separates <strong>Brunel</strong> from<br />
most other universities<br />
in london, and <strong>Brunel</strong>’s<br />
Placement and careers<br />
centre’s strong links with<br />
prospective employers<br />
are very beneficial from<br />
a student’s perspective.<br />
