A matter of great relevance to anyone applying for studies at a university is the question of future career prospects provided by the diploma of higher education. University students improve their thinking process, participate in academic life, participate in creative activities and acquire vital skills by taking an internship. All of the above helps the students better understand potential ways of how to apply their newly gained theoretical knowledge in professional practice. VMU Career Centre, a subdivision of the Student Affairs Department, was established to guide students in career planning paths and strategies.
