Continuing your studies, starting a career, founding a company or an academic career
The opportunities after graduation are many and varied. It therefore makes sense to start thinking about the time after graduation while you are still studying. Regardless of whether you want to continue your studies, perhaps aim for a doctorate, enter professional life or become self-employed, we will provide you with professional advice and support.
The Career Centre supports you in starting your career. Workshops and the ORTE career fair highlight opportunities and open doors to companies. If you are considering a doctorate, the university's Graduate and Research Academy offers advice not only before, but also on the path to a successful doctorate.
Opportunities after a degree programme
After successfully completing a Bachelor's degree, there are further Master's degree programmes that lead to a further academic degree M.Sc. or MBA.
If you would like to continue working academically after successfully completing a Master's or diploma degree, you can find information on doctoral studies here. The doctorate is the award of the academic degree of doctor in a specific subject and serves as proof of the ability to carry out in-depth and independent academic work. The Graduate and Research Academy GraFA supports doctoral candidates in all matters relating to the doctorate. Information on doctoral studies and current vacancies for doctoral positions.
