Career counselling helps students become oriented towards their future and consider the different themes of career planning. The career planning support provided for our students in the degree programmes is usually included in the expertise and working life studies, but the themes of career planning may also be discussed in small groups or in meetings with individual students.
The students’ questions about the future often concern topics of identity and expertise, the competencies and skills required and the work opportunities and options opened up by their education. In addition, career planning covers themes such as finding things that are important to the student, allowing the student to consider their choices and specialisations, and self-confidence.
Career Services offers students personal career counselling and advice in matters related to job hunting and traineeships. They also organise events around the themes of job hunting and careers. In addition to discussions, career counselling may include different methods and techniques with the aim of improving the student’s career skills. The goal of career counselling is to provide the student with tools to finding answers and discussing things together to help the student clear their thoughts.
