What does the EDE Program offer?
As well as mentoring from Ensera Design and further development opportunities from our industry partners, the program provides £2,000 sponsorship each of the successful candidates and up to an additional £1,000 per person for travel and accommodation.
We commit to give our EDE Interns up to 8 weeks of our time and support throughout the final academic year. This can take place either face-to-face in our office or remote.
The program is designed to equip interns with the knowledge and skills focused on their final year project and help support their future entry into the design industry. The opportunity is a great way to gain insight and knowledge of an exciting and unique consultancy as well as making connections with experts throughout the business.
