degree apprenticeships are a relatively new initiative. the aim of a degree apprenticeship is, as the name suggests, to combine the academic aspects of a university degree with the practical experience and application of an apprenticeship.although they are primarily targeted at school leavers aged 18-19, degree apprenticeships are also suitable for 16 to 18-year-olds and mature students, including those who have already completed a lower-level apprenticeship and wish to enhance their career prospects through further study. as with other apprenticeships, the training costs and student fees will be covered by the government and your employer. degree apprentices are not eligible for student loans, and you must therefore cover your own living costs. however, with the opportunity to earn up to £500 per week as part of the scheme, you will be receiving financial support of some form. the majority of degree apprenticeships focus on stem subjects (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), however there are others available. the full list available is as follows:
