Universities are not just places where young UK adults complete a degree course . The reality is a long way from this.

Universities offer many support services to all types of organisations locally, nationally and internationally via dedicated business-facing staff and academics . The student population is vastly diverse in it's composition with students of all ages and races from all over the world.

The aims of this website are twofold:

1. To encourage employers on Merseyside to engage with universities by:
   • contributing ideas into and becoming involved with Higher Education
   • taking advantage of the excellent business support services as well as the more traditional student placement options
2. By demonstrating what it is like to live and work on Merseyside to encourage graduates to remain or come to the area.
