Work Your BA
Jan. 21-30, 2014
厂辞鈥︹赌�What are you going to do after you graduate?!鈥�

The question is no doubt familiar, and potentially anxiety-provoking, to any student or soon-to-be Arts graduate, and it can be a challenging one to answer. The possibilities are many, and career paths and transitions often make much more sense in hindsight that they do when you are right in the midst of them.

Learning about the routes that others have followed can often be helpful when you're thinking about your own options, so if you're looking for ideas, information, inspiration, motivation and advice, come to Work Your BA organized by 成人VR视频's Career Planning Service (CaPS) and the Arts Undergraduate Society (AUS).

SCHEDULE OF EVENTS

CaPS and AUS are organizing a buffet of events to feed your career curiosity from the NGO/Non Profit Fair to career panel discussions to a great roundtable event to help you meet and learn from professionals in a wide variety of fields.
