Career Planning – At BUE we believe that it is never too early to start planning for your future. The Employability service can provide you with information, advice and guidance to support you with your career development. We can help you make informed career decisions, identify your self-promotion skills, and best prepare you for a smooth transition into further study or employment.
What Can I Do With My Degree – Not all students know what they’d like to do after they graduate and for many this can seem like a daunting decision. Not all degrees lead onto a specific career and often a degree can prepare you for a wide range of possibilities. One way to help start your thinking is to see where other graduates from your programme of study have gone onto work. Come to the Employability service and speak to our advisor who can discuss career destinations information with you.
Fairs – The Employability service can provide you with information on dates, time, employers expected to attend, how you can best prepare and how to make the most out of the Fair.
