�ۿ۴�ý

The quality of �ۿ۴�ý’s careers service is underpinned by official data. The �ۿ۴�ý’s graduates are amongst the most employable in the UK, and second only to the University of Oxford in the South East of England, according to the Graduate Outcomes data published by the Higher Education Standards Agency.

These outcomes are a result of a consistent focus on preparing students for employment in �ۿ۴�ý’s curriculum, the inclusion of it successful Professional Training placement and other schemes, and the excellent support provided by the University’s Employability and Careers team.

The �ۿ۴�ý is also ranked first in the UK and 12th in the world for work placements and research partnerships with employers, according to the globally respected QS World Employability Rankings 2020.

The NUE award recognises a university’s careers and employability service that goes above and beyond to help their students embark on careers upon graduation, as well as maximising their work experience opportunities during their studies.

Along with supporting 16,000 students, �ۿ۴�ý’s Employability and Careers team is also committed to reducing the gap into highly skilled employment for disadvantaged students through its Career Mentoring Scheme. �ۿ۴�ý’s Career Mentoring Scheme matches BAME students, care leavers and estranged students with professional mentors across its network.

The NUE Award judges noted that the �ۿ۴�ý “is a shining example of what a best-in-class careers service looks like”.
