Career Service

The Career Service is a central point of contact for Hochschule Geisenheim University students with questions relating to career orientation, qualifications, or transitioning to the world of work.

With our established contacts to a range of prospective regional and international employers,  the Career Service is an important link between your student and working life. We are continually expanding our range of support options for students by working with, and further developing, external university networks. Our goal is to support students in planning their professional career and preparing their transition to the job market.

Whether you're interested in an internship placement, thesis topic, or your first job after graduating, the MEET Career Fair brings together students, alumni, and businesses to connect in person. Make valuable contacts, discover exciting job opportunities, and take your future career into your own hands.
