Supporting your career ambitions
Imperial students are always in high demand (so high that you might even get headhunted before you graduate).
That’s because many of the world’s top employers know our graduates have a reputation for being exceptionally bright, entrepreneurial and hard-working.
From your first day here, you’ll have access to a huge range of support services to help you prepare for - and secure - the next step in your academic or professional life.
The support doesn’t stop the minute you get your cap and gown, either. You can continue to use the Careers Service up to three years after you graduate from Imperial.
