The Careers Service is equipped to provide support, knowledge and career expertise to assist each faculty in delivering the best outcomes for students. Find out what we offer to students.

Orientation

We address every first year group in all faculties during orientation to alert them to our services. We also see a large number of first year students who are uncertain about their choices or have not been accepted into the course they applied to.

Bespoke Workshops and Presentations

We run various bespoke talks and workshops within both undergraduate and postgraduate classes across all faculties.

If you are interested in inviting us to speak to your students or run a workshop, contact the Careers Service
