Employer driven masterclasses
Graduate Skills Masterclasses are open to any BU student to attend and are a fantastic opportunity for you to gain an insight into industry sectors and skills that employers are looking for. Masterclasses are delivered weekly during term time on either Talbot or Lansdowne campus and are open to any student to attend.
Masterclasses are themed around the Bournemouth University Graduate attributes which encompass many graduate skills, mindsets and behaviours in demand from graduate employers.
