Undergraduate Sandwich Student Placements

The Sandwich Student Scheme is an opportunity for undergraduate students to work within the House of Commons, offering a unique insight into governance and the running of Parliament in general. Students must be enrolled on a four year degree which allows you to complete a Sandwich placement on your third year of study.

We have limited placements for students and these will be advertised ad hoc via our careers portal if they become available.
