In
the past, most degree-course
students have found it difficult
to obtain permission to work
in the UK after their studies
have finished. But the UK Government
has recently changed its policies
to make it easier for some students
to stay and work in the UK on
successful completion of their
studies. If an employer obtains
a work permit for a student
who has completed a recognized
degree in the UK, the student
may become a work permit-holder
without having to leave the
UK.
Under the Science and Engineering
Graduates Scheme, students graduating
in certain physical sciences,
mathematics and engineering
may be able to stay in the UK
to look for or take work for
12 months after their graduation
without a work permit. A list
of approved courses can be found
on the Working in the UK website
by clicking on Schemes and Programmes.
