Master's students
Most Master’s students at Imperial will be on a one year course. Be aware that many graduate jobs have applications as early as October (to start work a year later). Don’t miss out and engage with the Careers Service early to make the most of the opportunities to meet employers and learn job market skills.
Careers Fairs
From your first day at Imperial you can access our JobsLive system where you will find full details of the leading companies attending our careers fairs.
We run a range of sector specific Careers Fairs across the autumn, summer and spring terms, to provide you with the opportunity to meet recruiters and find out about the programmes on offer from different organisations.
JobsLive also gives you access to:
- Internships and jobs advertised specifically to Imperial students
- Access to the many talks and presentations from employers happening every week year round
- Talks about career-related skills such as making applications, interviewing and career planning
Attributes & Aspirations
Attributes & Aspirations is an interactive, practical, flexible online short course that supports you to decide on and plan for whatever you want your professional future to be. AA will be available from early September for all masters students in the Faculties of Engineering, Medicine and Natural Sciences to help you develop key skills that will help with your masters study and down the line. In AA you can choose which topics (from things like team working, decision making, problem solving and communication) you want to focus on and can complete them on a timeline that works for you! Check out our webpage in the left hand menu to get enrolled.
