Discover you future is about exploring who you are, being aware of what you can do and what you want, and using this awareness to make good choices throughout your life.
Career support
When you embark on your degree, you have already made a choice that is part of your career. Career is not necessarily about your dream job or climbing the ladder as quickly as possible. It is about exploring who you are, what you can do and what you want, and using this ability to make good choices throughout your life. Through this program you can discover what your future could be. With the help of small steps, spread out over the entire course of study, you get access to some useful tools, find out what you will use your education for and become even more confident on the way there.
Engage and gain work expericence
Alongside your academic work, you will find many opportunities. You can get involved in various student associations or other activities, and you can get a part-time job or a summer job. In this process, you will learn about yourself and acquire skills that you will make use of on your way forward. You will try out new things, get to know yourself and what you enjoy, and maybe what you don't enjoy? You will find out what is important to you and what options you have for further education or work after you graduate.
Discover your opportunities
Not everything can be, or needs to be planned, during the course of your studies. But we know that by exploring the possibilities that exist, by getting to know yourself and your interests, you will open many doors in the long run. Preparing for life after graduation is a process that takes time and starts early. We have therefore created a program to make it easier for you to discover your opportunities along the way, make way for good choices later and see what you can do this semester.
