Studying and Working

Finding part-time work

Part-time work can be a good way for students to earn extra income, while also providing a chance to learn new skills and meet new people. Many of our students work around Falmouth and some are employed by the University as Student Ambassadors and in other on-campus roles. 

Our Employability Service is also here to support you in finding employment opportunities, including paid internships.

Online study for flexibility

Many students want to forge ahead in their career or switch industries. This can often mean working alongside your studies is essential. We offer flexible studying options so you get the best university experience and graduate with the expertise you need for your chosen career.

For the ultimate flexibility in your studies you may want to consider studying online. Here at Falmouth we offer online undergraduate and master's degrees that develop your professional skillset, give you access to industry-practising lecturers and the one-to-one support you need.
