Internships and Career Services
We equip our students to be critical thinkers, hands-on leaders, and responsible managers–a real asset for your CV and of immense value in the professional world. A dedicated career services team provides you with one-on-one coaching and practical input–from writing a CV to preparing for an interview–as you explore different career paths. They will help you find opportunities and prepare for your internships.
Present on each campus, career coaches serve as guides and mentors along the way to help push you in the right direction. They are essentially living, breathing toolkits, there to equip you with the skills you need to succeed as a student, throughout your internships, and after you graduate. They are your go-to person in creating a roadmap for your career and equipping you to succeed at finding the job you want.
