Working in Bournemouth

As Bournemouth is a service sector town it provides plenty of opportunities for part-time, casual work in its range of cafés, restaurants, bars, hotels and shops. Many students supplement their income by finding part-time employment during their time at BU. Of course the amount you will be able to commit to will depend on the demands of your course of study.
