What you do after you leave us is as important to us as what you do while you're here. That's why we work with employers to help you get the best possible start. Our degrees are designed to help you along your career path - and there are opportunities inside and outside your course that will help you stand out in the market place.

Our graduates have gone on to great things, whether that is creating stunning video games for Xbox, running a tasting room at a prestigious wine farm in South Africa or starting their own business.

Employability and Enterprise Hub
This facility at our Kedleston Road site enables you to:

• Network with and be mentored by senior business figures
• Attend exclusive business seminars and workshops
• Access funding to start up your own enterprise
• Gain employment with top-level companies
• Use your skills to help good causes
• Employers use the hub to interview and talent-spot students, so it’s somewhere to get yourself noticed.

Our links with industry, professional qualifications and career support will help you succeed, whatever your goals. You may already be sure of your career path and know exactly which course you need to take to get you there. Perhaps you have already embarked on your career but need extra qualifications to progress or to switch sectors.

At Derby you can choose from a range of professional qualifications, from our MBA and LLM to various teacher training options. Alternatively, our online courses provide flexible study which allows you to continue working while gaining your qualifications.

We develop our courses in partnership with employers and industry bodies to provide you with skills relevant to today’s workplace. Placements and work-based projects will give you the professional edge, and in many cases you can tailor your postgraduate studies to your specific career needs.
