Careers & Employability - First Year Supports
Being in a new environment can be both exciting and daunting, and sometimes this may make us question our decision about our course choice. We encourage students in this situation to talk to a Careers Advisor before making any decision about changing or withdrawing from a course. Call into the Careers & Employability Centre or book an appointment online at DkIT Careers Connect.
