We are inviting you to come and hear about the exciting and varied careers of QM graduates.
Alumni from across the Humanities Schools at QM, will be joining us to talk about their career sectors and their jobs, as well as providing insights and top tips for successfully following in their footsteps and answering your questions.
The format of the event will be speed networking where you'll get to spend dedicated time in a small group with the speakers - and the speakers will rotate round the groups... so you will have chance to meet all of them and to ask your questions. If you are already interested in one or more of the career areas represented by our guests, this will be a brilliant opportunity to make connections and get top tips. If you are still at the stage of thinking 'where will my degree take me...', this will be a fantastic chance to build knowledge about different careers and get inspiration about what QM graduates have achieved in their early careers!
