Leeds Global Industry Programme When it takes place
There are various cohort dates for the Leeds Global Industry Programme for the 2025–2026 academic year.
You can participate in the programme only once, and you must be able to commit to the cohort you register for. If you withdraw from the programme, we cannot guarantee you a place in another cohort.
Orientation and project briefing sessions are compulsory. You must be available for all the dates in the cohort.
You will need to make sure you can commit 25 hours over the 2 weeks. Coordinate with your team to ensure that you’re able to attend meetings and contribute equally to all deliverables.

Celebration and reflection events
In March and July 2026, students who have completed the programme will be invited to attend an in‑person Celebration and Reflection Workshop, held at the university.
These events provide a valuable opportunity for those who complete the programme to come together, share their experiences, and recognise their achievements. Attendees will hear directly from employers, participate in guided discussions designed to showcase and articulate the skills they’ve developed, and engage in meaningful reflection activities.
The workshop also offers dedicated time for networking with fellow students, allowing participants to build connections, exchange insights, and strengthen their professional community.
Invitations to these events will be shared via email to all students who complete the programme.
