The University of Bath is committed to supporting our students in making informed, independent decisions about their future careers. Our students and graduates have a wide range of interests, and we encourage them to seek careers that align with their values and fulfil their aspirations.

We facilitate access to opportunities with employers and professional networks, within UK legal and regulatory frameworks in which we operate, ensuring students have the broadest range of options available to them. We actively build and maintain relationships with employers in the UK and across the world who wish to recruit our students and graduates. Our stance is impartial, inclusive and reflects our diverse student community.

We foster an environment where students can engage critically with potential employers whilst ensuring that all voices and perspectives are respected. The University has a longstanding and deeply embedded commitment to Freedom of Speech and Academic Freedom. Members of our community are encouraged to express themselves freely and to hold their own opinions and are also expected to demonstrate mutual respect and tolerance of those with different views, and to recognise that free speech must operate within the law. These principles apply to students and their access to careers events, information and networking opportunities.

We do not endorse specific employers or career paths but instead provide the tools and opportunities for students to make their own choices. We are also working hard to make employer practices, ethics, and sustainability commitments more visible
