The University Careers Service of Université Sorbonne Paris Nord
The University Careers Service of Université Sorbonne Paris Nord is generally responsible for providing career guidance and assistance with finding employment to the students of all of the university’s Faculties and Institutes.
The division was created in compliance with Decree no. 86-195 of February 1986. Since its inception, it has been engaged in activities to raise awareness among secondary school pupils and the university’s students and to provide them with careers guidance. It was already providing careers guidance prior to 2007.
It is thus very natural that it incorporated the Employment Assistance Office into its structure when the latter was created in order to meet the requirements of the addition to Law no. 2007-119 of August 2007 concerning the obligation upon universities to assist students to find employment.
At Université Sorbonne Paris Nord, the Employment Assistance Office functions as the head of a network intended to catalyze or initiate procedures to assist students to find employment.
Each year, the University Careers Service uses the recommendations of its Careers Guidance and Employment Committee to define the scope of its activities and actions.
In order to clarify the resources and expertise that it provides, the University Careers Service is organized into three branches.
