Graduating...what next?

Getting ready for what's next

The Employability and Graduate Futures team have the experience and expertise  to help develop your graduate transition plan.

Taking control of this transition stage is the best way to prepare and plan for success. This semester we are encouraging final year students and postgraduate students coming to the final stages of their current programme of study to engage with our services and activities that will help you develop a plan for the weeks and months ahead.

Alongside our expert 1-1 advice and coaching service we are also offering a new 'Graduating...What Next?' Ulster EDGE Award activity. This will provide you with bespoke support and also give you the opportunity to complete one of your Ulster EDGE Award activities.
