Improving your employability

Our University runs a mentoring scheme which matches 2nd year students with employees from local organisations. The employees help students to improve their employability by developing workplace skills and business awareness. This could be why 90.4% of our students are in employment or further study 6 months after graduating (2nd only in our region to Cambridge University at 91.2%).
