No published policyLevel 6/7 Bachelor's and Master's Degree Apprenticeships and Advanced Apprenticeships (Aeronautical Avionics, Mechanical Manufacturing, Business Administration, Project Management, Facilities Management)

Unconfirmed. QinetiQ publishes no sponsorship policy for its level 6/7 bachelor's and master's degree apprenticeships and advanced apprenticeships, so we cannot state a firm answer. QinetiQ's apprenticeships page lists routes up to Level 6/7 Bachelor's and Master's degree apprenticeships, run through the QinetiQ Apprentice Training School at MOD Boscombe Down, across more than 35 UK sites. As a defence and national security contractor, security vetting is highly likely to apply, but the page itself does not mention nationality, residency, clearance or visa sponsorship at all.
