Careers and Academic

 

The thought of life after university can be quite daunting, but there is plenty of information and advice available. This web page is intended to increase awareness of events, which may be poorly publicised, and facilitate your search for the right career.
Perhaps even more important to you now is your time here at Magdalen. Tutorials are a central part of your learning and it's crucial that you are happy with the work and with the interaction with your tutors. I want to make sure you enjoy your time spent studying here so you can enjoy your time spent not studying even more!
 
For information on careers and academic issues, follow these links:
  • Personal Tutors scheme - you can find out more about the personal tutors, who they are and how to contact them
  • Careers Advice - these are the services available to you in both Magdalen and across the whole university

I hope to provide you with useful information that you might need in making choices that will affect the rest of your life. If you have any unanswered questions, please don't hesitate to email me at academicaffairs@magdjcr.co.uk
