Planning your next steps

  • What support offered to final year students will be useful for you?

  • Which support available to alumni will be useful for you?
  • What professional organisations, associations or standards are relevant for your career plans?

 

Reflect

Reflect on your time at university and how it has shaped your development in terms of your skills and knowledge. Consider your achievements and how you would share these with a prospective employer or when applying for a course.
