Working during your studies

Our Careers and Placements team can help you to find a part-time job and can provide information on your legal rights and obligations. We advise that you work no more than 20 hours a week during the semester as anything over this may interfere with your studies and affect your health and wellbeing. If you are a Student visa holder you will need to be aware of any working restrictions placed on you by your visa.
