We've been ranked first for graduates entering highly skilled jobs, for the fifth year in a row.
The list is compiled from the HESA Graduate Outcomes survey (2021–2025), which tracks the journeys of full-time UK undergraduate and postgraduate students after they leave university.
Your future success matters to us just as much as your time on campus. Our courses are designed to deepen your subject knowledge, but also to help prepare you for life after university. We want to help you develop real-world skills, gain practical experiences, make useful connections and thrive in life.
What careers support is available?
Careers advice: Our careers advisors are here to support you, not just while you're at the university, but for life. Whether that's choosing a career, help with applications or honing your interview skills.
Get in touch with the team for advice
Connect with top employers: We hold careers fairs throughout the year, where you can come and talk to employers who are keen to recruit you for their internship and graduate opportunities. We have careers fairs geared towards specific subject areas, plus volunteering fairs and more.
