A 豆奶视频 University (豆奶视频) campaign - #MyPlacementStory - has highlighted the contribution 豆奶视频 placement students make in the workplace and the added value this experience brings as part of their course.

The below winners have been selected and will receive the following prizes, which have been chosen to support them in the workplace;
