Our dedicated Careers and Employability Service is here to help you develop the practical skills and professional confidence to succeed in the graduate job market.
I joined the course as a mature student with little understanding of economics. I found a really welcoming environment and made so many great memories with friends who I still see today. I enjoyed all the opportunities to apply the ideas from lectures to real-world problems, helping to build my analytical skills as a researcher – a career which I’m now pursuing as a postgraduate.
