Notification of Practical Work / Getting work credited
All practical work MUST be registered by logging onto UCStudent Web and submitting a New Notification of Practical Work form. This should be submitted before or within 2 weeks of starting employment and only if an employer has confirmed your employment.
In exceptional circumstances the form may be submitted after completion of the period of work, but under NO circumstances can it be submitted more than 12 months after commencing the work.
Failure to submit the New Notification of Practical Work form will result in the work not being credited for the Degree.
The Practical Work Coordinator will contact your employer (using the contact details you have provided) near the end of your period of work to confirm details of your work experience. When the employer has confirmed these details (such as dates of employment, hours worked, type of work performed, and comments on student behaviour, attendance and performance) your hours are credited to your record.
Work will not be credited until a satisfactory report is received from the employer. Unsatisfactory reports are discussed with the employer and the student, and may result in the work not being credited for the Degree.
Intermediate Year students wanting to credit work experience will need to manually fill out a Commencement Form (PDF 27 kB) and submit it directly to the Practical Work Coordinator in the College of Engineering Office.
