The Placements & International Programmes Office is based within the Directorate for the Student Experience (DSE). We will usually conduct any in-person appointments with students in the Atrium in University Place. The building is number 37 on the Campus Map. You can easily arrange an appointment by emailing either Maria or Louise. We can also conduct meetings via Zoom if preferred.
