It suggests that traditional careers advice isn-'t working. The problem isn't necessarily that too many students are taking the wrong course.

At the University of Kent, students can use an online Careers Explorer service to match their skills to career options, and a work-study scheme that provides bursaries for work experience. Students at the University of Dundee can take employability modules in parallel with their academic work, including online and personal career planning sessions.
