Employability
We have graduate employability at the heart of our approach to education, working closely with industry to ensure your knowledge and experience allows you to succeed when you graduate and thrive in your life-long career.
In order to successfully get a job, graduates need the qualifications, experience and skills required to allow them to excel in the role. RGU has a 97.6% graduate employment rate, ranking it as the top university in Scotland for employability (DHLE 16-17).
Placements are an excellent opportunity for you to gain real experience and for employers to see what you have to offer. The placement team support students to find relevant work placement opportunities with local, national and even international organisations.
Our approach to developing our courses involves working closely with industry to understand what the needs for the future are and ensuring our teaching reflects the workplace.
During your course at RGU, you have the opportunity to build your international awareness through studying or working abroad for a semester. You could travel to another university around the world and experience learning in a whole new environment. These experiences help you stand out, and allow you to build your confidence, overcome new challenges & demonstrate global citizenship.
