Career counselling

Career counselling supports the development of career management and worklife skills. Career management skills are learnable and help you for example to identify your strengths, explore your career aspirations and options, develop yourself and support the decision making for your own future. We offer individual career counselling sessions and in addition organize Boost your career -workshops for international degree programme students.

Individual career counselling session

Career counselling session is a personal, confidential discussion with a career counsellor. In the session you as a student/recent graduate can freely ponder and reflect on matters related to your future, study choices or worklife and job search. The topics and goals of each session stems from your needs and questions. You can come to the career counselling session at any stage of your studies and it’s available for you one year after the graduation.
