Employability Zone
Celebrating the achievement of student’s delivering a piece of self-direct project work
Employability Zone
This is a unique opportunity to meet with students from the department of Computer Science. The Student Conference enables our students showcase their projects and brings together employers and our graduate talent. By circulating the fair, watching the presentations and representing your company, you will be able to meet our students on a one-to-one basis, chat to them in an informal environment plus learn more about their individual projects, skills and passion for Computer Science. If you are looking to recruit graduates in Computer Science this is a unique opportunity for you to come and meet with hundreds of our students, see their work and possibly find a great team member for your company.
Attending the project fair will give you the chance to:
-
Promote your business to approx. 700 students. Display space will be available if you wish to set up a stand to engage and market your company to students.
-
Engage with students who have the skills you are looking for.
-
Meet and speak to our Computer Science academic staff about our current research and developments.
-
Visit our Swansea Bay Campus and discuss future collaborative work with Students and staff.
Over the course of the conference there will be hundreds of students showcasing their Computer Science projects as well as presentations from our master students. You are welcome to attend all or some parts of the conference.
The Employability Zone is a chance for you to meet directly with local and national employers and find out about a range of opportunities available. There will also be an opportunity to improve your skills in searching for and applying for jobs to secure the start of your dream career. The Employability team will be available for you to get advice and support on a range of skills from CV writing to starting your own business.
