Career Development Centre
When you start your course you really don’t have to know what you want to do with the rest of your life but by the end of your degree, you will need to make some decisions that determine the next step. The Career Development Centre encourages you to use your time in NUI Galway to increase your employability by developing your skills and exploring your options while studying so you will have a deeper insight into what you might like to do after graduation. The Career Development Centre aims to provide you with a quality career guidance and information service focused on facilitating and empowering you to manage your own career development and make effective career transitions.
The Career Development Centre helps you to manage your own career by providing a wide range of support services. Services offered include:
• Seminars and information on occupations, employers, industry sectors and postgraduate programmes. Attending these will really help you to understand what is involved in different careers and open up options with your degree.
• Workshops and seminars which encourage students to develop employability and career management skills.
• Placement - we work closely with a number of academic programmes to support students going on a compulsory placement.
• One to one career guidance for current students of NUI Galway.
• Opportunities to meet with potential employers and alumni at seminars, presentations and a variety of job fairs throughout the academic year.
• Career modules, lectures and tutorials integrated in many academic programmes.
• NUI Galway Employability Award - open to all students.
