Career
The University of Bayreuth’s Career Services team provides a central interface between student and professional life. We offer guidance and support to students of all subjects with regard to starting their careers, and we help alumni stay in touch with their alma mater. At the same time, a diverse array of cooperation agreements give companies access to the talented young people at our dynamic, research-oriented university.
The two flagship events organized by Career Services are the workshop series Career Days in the summer semester and the career fair Career Forum in winter semester. These events enable direct exchange between students and industry partners and often lead to internships and permanent positions. In addition to these highlights, Career Services also offers a diverse event programme full of workshops, excursions, seminars, webinars, and talks. Would you like to make sure you don’t miss anything? Then sign up for the KUK Newsletter! Our team also advises students on the topics of careers and submitting applications. This includes one-on-one career advising, checking applications documents, mock interviews, and useful links and tips.
In addition, the office supports the University of Bayreuth’s Job Portal by posting vacancies for permanent positions, academic employment, part-time jobs, and internships. If you are looking for internship opportunities, Internship Services is also happy to help:
