University careers fair

Photo opportunity, 2pm, Thursday, November 7, Bonar Hall, Park Place, Dundee.

More than 1000 students and 50 organisations will be looking to the future tomorrow, November 7, when they attend the University of Dundee's annual careers fair.

Companies, organisations and educational institutions will be setting up information stands in the Bonar Hall, Park Place, and will be on hand to provide advice to students about entering the workplace or continuing in education.

Information on a wide array of occupations will be available in fields including policing, computer games technology, projects abroad, teaching, the armed forces and many more. Representatives from several universities will also be present to offer advice on post graduate study.

A spokesperson for the University's careers service, which organises the fair, said, "Most of the credit for the success which Dundee graduates achieve across an astonishingly wide range of careers must go to the graduates themselves but our annual fair and events like it play a major part in the process."
