Our CareersBU, Placement and Global Engagement teams can now be found in the new Opportunity Hub, located on the ground floor of the Bournemouth Gateway Building.
Launching on Monday 2 October, your new Opportunity Hub aims to give you more access to student services that can help you make the most of your time at BU.
Each day of the week a different team will be based at the hub, allowing you to drop-in and ask questions, receive advice, or learn about upcoming opportunities related to placements, career development, volunteering, global experiences and more.
The space is currently open as part of a pilot to help us determine the need for the services available. Use of the hub will be reviewed before the start of semester two.
The Opportunity Hub schedule will run during term time as follows:
|

11am – 1pm: Business School Postgraduate Placements Team 1pm – 3pm: Global Engagement Team who can help you explore overseas opportunities and any funding that is available. |
