CAREERS CENTRAL WORKSHOPS
Careers Central offers a variety of workshops to help you prepare yourself for the challenges in obtaining a graduate position at the end of your degree. Generic workshops are open to all students across all disciplines and usually take place in our seminar room in our main offices in building 11. Our faculty based Career Consultants run workshops that are tailored to specific disciplines and years and these workshops take place in common teaching space across campus.
Workshops are scheduled six weeks in advance so you should check back regularly for updates.
