Apprenticeships

Choose from undergraduate (Level 6) and Masters (Level 7) degree apprenticeships.

Interested in doing a degree in your field of employment and earn while you learn?

A degree apprenticeship at Sussex gives you the practical experience and academic skills to boost your career. You’ll spend the majority of your time learning in the workplace and at least 20% of your time studying at the University.

Our research strength and industry collaborations underpin our teaching, giving you a competitive edge. Partnering with local employers, we tailor degree apprenticeships so businesses can upskill their staff while keeping them in the workforce. Apprenticeships are funded by the Apprenticeship Levy. This means your employer can use UK Government funding to cover the costs of your training, while you earn a degree without paying tuition fees. (You’ll need to be in work already or apply for an apprenticeship role.)

When you graduate, you’ll be confident to bring fresh perspectives and innovative ideas to the workforce – opening doors to advance your career.
