Employability focus

Finding a job

In this image there is a careers fair taking place on the Edge Hill University campus. This image focuses on one student talking to an employer.

We apply real world knowledge and research to our teaching. We aim to educate our students to know what employers are looking for in competitive job markets. Our approach is to help students to discover their strengths and skills, understanding how to showcase these in their future career path.

To showcase this, 95.6% of our students employed or in further study within 15 months of graduating (Graduate Outcomes data released 2023).

As well as ensuring you graduate with excellent career prospects, there are several ways that you may be able to gain experience outside of the University while you study, some of which may allow you to earn money. The type of Visa you hold may affect your ability to take paid or voluntary work while in the UK.
