| Steps in your career orientating process
|
| When you complete your Bachelor’s programme, you can either begin your professional career or continue with a Master’s degree. It’s your choice because it’s your career. During your Bachelor’s programme, we will prepare you for both of these potential scenarios. The steps for organising your career orientation are explained based on four different themes: Reflect, Explore, Connect en Get Skilled.
