Higher Education Events
Throughout the year colleagues from Student Marketing and our faculties represent the University of Ulster at local and regional Careers and Higher Education Events. To keep up-to-date with events that we will be attending, please visit our Open Days & Events section.
Local Events
Events to look out for on the calendar are local Business Enterprise Partnership (BEP) Careers Fairs. Schools and Colleges are usually contacted directly by the organising committees.
Regional
Many of the large regional/UK events are organised through UCAS and the careers network (these are often termed HEC events – indicating Higher Education Convention). In Northern Ireland, the King’s Hall in Belfast plays host to the UCAS HE Convention during March where schools and colleges from around the region will attend.
You can find out more information about UCAS events happening across the UK at www.ucas.com
We are also regularly attend careers conventions/fairs in the Republic of Ireland; such as the The Irish Times Higher Options in Dublin and Cork, and many more organised by the Institue of Careers Guidance Counsellors - Ireland.
These events will provide students and careers staff with the opportunity to meet with advisers and gather literature. Very often these events serve as the first point of contact for those considering making the move to higher education.
