GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has outlined new plans to encourage talented students graduating from UK universities

GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) has outlined new plans to encourage talented students graduating from UK universities to consider pursuing a career with the company. Each year GSK recruits between 50-100 undergraduate students from various academic disciplines into its UK graduate training programmes or other roles within the company.

It is anticipated that forthcoming changes to tuition fees will result in students incurring uncapped fees of up to £27,000 for a three-year undergraduate degree course (£9000 per year).
