Your career prospects
A 91Ö±²¥ degree is a preparation for life and the world of work. We’ll support you throughout your course and after you graduate.
It’s all about you
Our students come from all kinds of backgrounds. Our aim is for every single one of them to reach their full potential. That’s why the support we offer is personal, built around you.
We want you to be able to work anywhere in the world, to make your mark among the brightest and best. To reach the top in your profession, if that’s your goal. To redefine it, if necessary. Or to create something completely new.
Through the curriculum and using online resources, you’ll learn how to manage your own development. We encourage you to reflect on what you’ve learned so you understand what your strengths are, and how you can do even better.
The Careers Service was so helpful, especially for students studying humanities. It helps you work out how to be employable and learn how to apply the skills you've learned at university in the real world. I’d recommend getting involved in everything you can and doing everything you can. It’s a chance to work out what you’re good at, what you love and what you thrive in.

Through our , you can take part in projects that give you invaluable insight into how organisations work and why.
During my year in industry at Cummins, I had the opportunity to work on a variety of projects of different sizes. All of this taught me how to manage my time and prioritise as I was usually in charge of my own personal projects throughout the year. All in all, I believe it to be a truly life-changing experience which I am sure will open many doors in the future.
