ENTERPRISE & INNOVATION ACADEMY
If you dream of running your own business, our Enterprise & Innovation Academy for Students can provide start-up workshops, networking events and advice on funding to help you get your idea off the ground. During your studies, you could even develop your business through our Placement Year Entrepreneurship Scheme and use it as a module credit that could count towards your final year result.

Since 2004, the Academy has helped create more than 180 student and graduate businesses, including Sweet Cecily’s, a natural skincare company established by LLB (Hons) Law graduate Cecily Fearnley, and Boston Shakers, a mobile cocktail bar service set up by BA (Hons) International Business graduate Mehul Patel.

The Academy also offers recent graduates use of a business address, professional meeting spaces and membership of the Leeds Chamber of Commerce, all completely free of charge for three months.

EMPLOYABILITY ADVICE
Our dedicated Employability Team will help you shape your CV and write job applications, prepare you for interviews and provide expert guidance when it comes to deciding your next steps in the world of work. They can also arrange career mentoring, where you’ll receive advice from people who have been successful and influential in their chosen field.
 
STUDY SUPPORT
Our Skills for Learning programme is designed to help you improve your communication, critical thinking and research skills. These sessions will help you get the most from your studies and will build the confidence and expertise you’ll need in your future career.

VOLUNTEERING
We work with some of the world’s premier music and sporting events, charities and community groups to offer you invaluable volunteering opportunities, where you can learn from industry leading experts and develop your workplace and people skills.

Previous students have volunteered with Live at Leeds, the Great North Run, the Audio & Radio Industry Awards and the 2012 London Olympics. On the University’s doorstep, students have visited local schools to support children with their reading and helped charities to raise vital funds. 

If you’ve set your sights further afield, Thailand, South Africa, Brazil and Peru are just some of the countries where we’ve run international volunteering projects over the last few years. As well as broadening your life skills, these ventures will give you a global perspective and provide much needed support to communities across the world.

No matter what you choose to do as a volunteer, the skills and insight you will gain will add colour and experience to your CV.

“By studying LLB (Hons) Law at Leeds Beckett, I set myself up with all the skills to understand the legalities of running a business. I studied employment law, consumer law and copyright law (amongst everything else), which have all been very useful, and I also have the ability to read and understand the legal information I now come across, such as product regulations.”
