Occupational fields
On this page, we offer a wide range of information about occupational fields. In the individual flyers, different areas of application and activities for graduates of the respective subjects are exemplified The fields of activity presented have proven to be promising, both in advisory discussions with students and through networking with our advisory colleagues from the various faculties of the University of Würzburg.
Further professions or occupational fields and detailed descriptions of entry/promotion opportunities, payment etc. can be found on the BERUFENET page of the employment agency.
NOTE: We are constantly updating the brochures! When downloading, you will need your Studi-Login, which you received from the information technology centre. The brochures are not accessible to non-students. Please note: The flyers are in German only.
