What we do for students

Careers & Professional Practice

The Careers & Professional Practice team’s mission is to support, develop and prepare UCA students and graduates for future employment, further study, lifelong learning and a sustainable creative life.

One to one advice

Careers support is available at all UCA campuses. We offer one-to-one advice based on individual needs. We help find jobs and internships, advise on all aspects of job applications and give guidance on career routes. Our aim is to make students clearer about their creative career paths and to be successful whatever route they choose.
