STEP
STEP is a UK-wide programme supported by various Government bodies, offering undergraduates work in small and medium-sized companies or community organisations. This allows students the opportunity to gain some valuable work experience, whilst helping the organisation to deal with a business problem.
Students usually undertake business or technology related projects. They get support from a STEP business advisor and receive a training allowance of £170 per week tax and national insurance free.

LUMS undergraduate Matthew Roberts talks about his experience on the STEP programme in 2002.
