In this week’s episode, I spoke with Dr Rebecca Power, Senior Project Officer of the EU-CONEXUS Career Network work package at SETU. In our conversation, Rebecca outlines the many ways EU-CONEXUS can help you build skills and knowledge, grow your network, gain new experiences, and avail of job and internship opportunities from international organisations.

The SETU Careers Development centre is part of the EU-CONEXUS Careers Network which is a valuable resource for students to access information about job opportunities and internships across Europe. The EU-CONEXUS Careers Network also provides useful resources (webinars, articles, quizzes, videos) to help students with their career journey. Students (undergraduate and postgraduate) can sign up to the EU-CONEXUS online careers platform, JobTeaser.

EU-CONEXUS European University is a 9-university alliance and SETU is a partner along with La Rochelle University, France; Catholic University of Valencia, Spain; University of Zadar, Croatia; Agricultural University of Athens, Greece; Frederick University, Cyprus; Technical University of Civil Engineering Bucharest, Romania; Klaipeda University, Lithuania and University of Rostock, Germany. EU-CONEXUS aims to address global and local challenges by tackling environmental, technical, economic and societal needs related to the broad topic of ‘Smart Urban Coastal Sustainability'. SETU students and staff can benefit from EU-CONEXUS through education and research opportunities, cultural and artistic activities, innovation contests, the ambassador programme, and many more events and opportunities.

Importantly however, EU-CONEXUS is open to students of all disciplines (e.g., architecture, tourism, business). Learn more about EU-CONEXUS opportunities and events. Find and follow EU-CONEXUS on social media using @eu_conexus
