Course Overview

Our course is specifically targeted at giving you the skills you need to pursue a successful career.

The University has an award-winning Careers and Employability service that provides a variety of employability-enhancing experiences; through the curriculum, employer contact, tailored group sessions, individual information, advice, and guidance.

General Eligibility
