Your career development

Everything we do here is to help you succeed in your chosen career. This is reflected in our outstanding graduate employability record and excellent teaching standards. Find out how we can help you to launch your chosen career.

Our Careers Service can help you to:

• find placements, internships and part-time work
• pursue self-employment
• take a gap year and time out
• get into volunteering
• pursue further study.

The range of employers and situations that we deal with is as diverse as our student base and we work to shape our Careers Service around your needs. No wonder 94% of our graduates* from full-time undergraduate study are employed or engaged in further study six months after leaving (*of those available for work, HESA survey 2009 / 10).

We have a consistently high graduate employment record of 95% of our postgraduates* are employed or engaged in further study six months after leaving (*of those available for work, HESA survey 2009-10. This statistic includes both full and part-time PGT and PGR).
