Graduate Toolkit
All the hard work, dedication and long hours you have put into your studies have brought you here today and you should be proud of your achievement. Graduation can be seen to mark the end of an era and the start of the next chapter. You may be left wondering, ‘what’s next?’. Don’t panic. There are a number of routes you can take after university and everyone’s journey will be different. To support you with your next move, we have developed the Graduate Toolkit.
Within this Graduate Toolkit, you will find a wealth of information to help you, no matter what stage you are at. The Toolkit provides guidance on different routes, where to start, types of opportunities, where to search for opportunities and support with the application process.
