Games Technology BSc(Hons): After you graduate

The Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing has a specialist Employability Team. It provides friendly and high-quality careers and recruitment guidance, including advice and sessions on job seeking skills such as CV preparation, application forms and interview techniques. Specific advice is also available for international students about the UK job market, employers' expectations and requirements, and how to apply for a post-study two-year work visa.

The team runs employer events throughout the year, including job fairs, key speakers from industry and interviews on campus. These events give you the opportunity to hear from, and network with, employers in an informal setting. For example, here students are practising their interview skills with employers at a 'speed interviewing' event on campus.

Listen to employability co-ordinator Katie Llewellyn-Cripps talk about how we prepare our students for employment:

Graduates of this course are suited to jobs in the games and media industries, but the core skills you will learn are also excellent preparation for a wide range of computing careers. These include games developer, graphics, AI or technical programmer, IT consultant, network support, database administrator or research and development in the games industry. If you take this course as a joint honours, then your career options will also include specialisms in your other area of study.
