The Development of Career Services for International Students
Gibson, Ellen
Australian Journal of Career Development, v14 n2 p19-23 Win 2005
The number of international students attending Australian universities has increased markedly over the past five years and has resulted in a need for career services that adequately reflect the requirements of these students. One of Queensland University of Technology's responses to this has been the appointment of a full-time International Career Counsellor to develop career services for all international students. This case study discusses these services; outlines the findings of a survey of Asian employers; and describes the development of an off-shore work placement scheme.
