Career Support

Welcome

Here we offer employment and career information to TUS graduates and alumni, including various data on places of employment and continuing education options, information on upcoming career fairs, and companies and organizations looking to hire TUS graduates.
Our employment and continuing education services are available at the Kagurazaka, Kudan, Noda, and Kuki Campuses, so feel free to contact any one of our four locations.

Information

For those currently seeking employment (June 2009)

With economic conditions worsening, we have seen a dramatic decrease in the number of companies looking to hire new graduates. The climate has completely shifted from a sellers' to a buyers' market. The situation has caused many of our graduates to be disappointed with the results of their ongoing job-seeking efforts, and many are becoming discouraged. We at the Employment Section are working daily to offer support that will be useful to you in your efforts to find employment. If you are having trouble finding a job, please feel free to stop by and speak with us at the Employment Section (Employment Support Office). Let's work together to put you on the path to achieving your dreams.
