Industry Engagement

North East Futures UTC believes that industry engagement is a very important part of our students' education. That's why we give them some insight into the wide range of different careers available in the Digital Technology and Health Science sectors here in the North East.

How industry engagement makes a difference

Through our Careers Programme, each and every student has the opportunity to tailor their pathway, so they are aware of what they need to do both academically and for their career.

Whether it is through liaising with your Mentor, attending a Careers Talk or participating in a Work-based Project, you will work alongside industry professionals and take advantage of the chances we offer you to develop your skills.

Our students are supported by our core partners. Employers such as Sage, Fujitsu, the NHS and many others are on hand to inform, guide and advise our students. This provides them with every opportunity to develop their skills, assess their career interests and focus on their chosen destination.

By engaging our students with key elements of industry, we are proud to be preparing the next generation of STEM-based professionals to enter the workplace.

Our Business Partners

At North East Futures UTC, we are supported by a range of high-profile and successful business partners.

Sharing their expertise from a range of sectors and industries, our business partners include healthcare institutions NHS, Iksuda Therapeutics and AHSN, as well as IT and Software companies such as Sage, Accenture, Fujitsu and Dynamo.
