Hi, sorry in advance, this is probably a very broad question, I am just looking for some advice really to narrow down my searching.
I am currently a part time student with the OU studying for a bachelor's in engineering (honours) looking to focus on electrical engineering next year.
I am in my 2nd year so currently studying broad engineering, mathematics, standards etc but I work full time in a totally unrelated job (admin)
I am looking at ways of gaining some practical and real-world experience and wondered what resources are available out there?
Even voluntary or part time, just something where I can practice the theory in a real-world setting and backup what I am learning more.
I am registered on LinkedIn searching for opportunities, I also use Forage (virtual work experience), I have the practical and theoretical opportunities with my studying but of course as I progress with my studies this varies depending on the topic I am studying.
Thanks in advance for any support you can offer
