What you do with your life goes beyond income and status. Your choice of career goes to the core of who you are, therefore it’s important to make decisions that are well-informed. Our aim is work with you to create the skills, resilience, experience and qualifications to ensure a career that provides you with purpose, inspiration and fulfilment.
Our Career Offer
All our degrees embed the skills and attributes that are expected of graduates in the modern work place. These programmes have been developed in consultation with panels of employers who have told us what they need.
Beyond the classroom, our career service is 100% bespoke because no two students are ever the same. You may have years of experience in a job or you may be coming to us straight from school. We take account of this and build support around your particular situation.
