After+Graduating

Options after Graduating

=Introduction =

Students who have graduated [postgraduate students] from either a Bachelors or Masters Degree have a number of different options available to them. Knowing what some of these options can help when making important decisions towards getting started in a particular career or subject. Advice on the Options Available After Graduating is often available from University Supervisors, Lecturers and Career Departments, and is available online ([|Direct.Gov.UK], [|Manchester.ac.uk], [|Prospects.ac.uk]) and from specialist groups (Connextions, Next Step).

Here we aim to provide some advice on six options, namely; Working, Postgraduate Study, Postgraduate Research, Knowledge Transfer Partnerships, Gap Years and Volunteering - by identifying what these options are, what they entail and how they can help in achieving particular aims
