Your programme and study association regularly organise alumni meetings. You can also join the alumni group on LinkedIn. With the alumni tool below you can find out directly where former students from your study work.
Within your field

Internship
An internship is a great opportunity to gain experience in your field and discover what you like. Not sure whether doing an internship is something for you? Or do you have no idea how to look for internship vacancies? Check our internship database, visit internship information sessions or ask your internship and career counselor for advice.
