Careers

The Careers Service provides support for all registered students as well as graduates for up to three years after graduation or for life if alumni members. The service offers personal advice sessions, workshops and in course training throughout your time in the University College.

The University College wants to ensure that students have the best possible chance of moving forward from a learning environment to a world of work or further study. The Careers Service is therefore committed to providing advice in the form of personal one on one sessions and workshops. 

The Careers Service can help you decide on a particular career, prepare you for the transition to the working environment and can advise you on relevant skills and knowledge required to work in a commercial environment. It is located in the Duke Street Centre adjacent to the Library, Lecture Theatre, Student Union Office and a social area. The service recently attained the MATRIX standard, a national quality standard and one which will ensure that you receive a high quality overall service.
