The Universities of Birmingham and Glasgow have joined forces to help their international students kick-start careers when returning to their home countries after graduation, as well as in the UK.
Careers experts at both universities have come together to pool knowledge, resources, and networks to develop in-country support for returning graduates, starting with India and China.
The new scheme also plans to enhance career provision in the UK for international students, alongside advice and support for UK students.
The programme will be available to students joining both universities from September 2025.
Professor Adam Tickell, Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of Birmingham (pictured), commented: “International students occupy a prominent place in our student community, and we are committed to helping them make the most of graduate opportunities – whether in their home countries or the UK.
“Working with the University of Glasgow, we aim to create an innovative, sector-leading approach to provide extra support that will help our graduates maximise the benefits of an education from a top British Russell Group university and accelerate their pathway into exciting and rewarding careers.”
