careers guidance

• the employability service offers careers advice and organises events including employment workshops and company visits.
• it offers 1-to-1 appointments with experienced careers advisers via phone, email or face-to-face.
•  this support is available to students before, during and after their time at the university. there is a regular 'college day' in london organised by the fulbright commission, when around 100 us universities extol the virtues of an american university education.
•  there are also university ranking tables, similar to those found here, for each of the major english-speaking countries.
•  the vast majority of uk universities offer study abroad opportunities at partner universities overseas or with companies and organisations offering placement years/internships– ask about them on open days and when you enrol.
•  year abroad opportunities are not just for students studying languages. many students undertake work and/or study exchanges or internships overseas.
•  some uniersities offer "langauges for all" style programmes where you can learn/continue a foreign language in addition to your degree with a view to spending a year overseas in third year
