Placement

Hi,
I'd be so grateful if anyone clarify the following italicized part:
"Graphic design is a rapidly growing course with a very practical approach. After the first two years of coursework taught in the university, students do a year's placement working with a company before returning to the university for the final year."

Is it a period in which a student must work in a company or organisation relevant to the field of study for free to gain some experiences?

regards,

Iman

imantaghavi "Is it a period in which a student must work in a company or organisation relevant to the field of study for free to gain some experiences? YES, That's correct. They are also referred to as "internships" (in the US) and you may even get paid while you are with the company gaining experience.
