Collaboration

Student Career Services of Wageningen University & Research supports students and recent graduates through their transition from study to career. We are experienced in the human resources field and the labour market. We work together with other career support providers, both internally and externally, and we have a large network. Students receive career advice and coaching and learn to explore the labour market. Organisations find us and share their latest job vacancies, internships and other career opportunities. We serve the whole student population of Wageningen – about 13,000 students, as well as our recent graduates. Our office is located in the educational building Forum on the Wageningen Campus.

Talk & Toast

A Talk & Toast is a great opportunity to present your organisation to our students in an informal way. We invite a maximum of two organisations for a talk of 15-20 minutes. Afterwards, you will have the opportunity to have drinks with the students. You can count on an average of 30-60 participating students.

Career Week

During the WUR Career Week (organized once a year in the Spring), a wide variety of career activities are organized to help students and recent graduates to prepare themselves for the labour market. During this week, organisations are invited to join the network drink with students.

Continent specific events

We organise events that are continent specific, such as working in Asia, working in Africa, working in Latin-America. We will include the cultural aspects in our opening talk and organisations with open positions in those continents are welcome to promote their organisation and open positions.
