What we offer
Careers Fairs remain a popular method for our students to research and meet employers. Following the success of our Autumn Careers and Placements Fair, the University of Bath Careers Service are hosting a specific Law Careers Fair for the first time. Whilst the University does not offer Law, we often have Law firms and providers of the CPE and GDL active on campus, and we have a growing Student Law Society. The event will be promoted to all years & disciplines via an App and internally including social media channels.
As this event is a pilot, we are not charging employers to attend but will be offering the opportunity to be an event sponsor - please contact Victoria Houston if interested in the sponsorship.
If you would like to attend, please email V.Houston@bath.ac.uk or recruit@bath.ac.uk - FAO Victoria to request a booking form link.
