Student support services

Counselling Services

Counselling is a helping process in which a counsellor meets with you, aiming to enhance your self-understanding and personal development to empower you to cope with your problems and stress to facilitate your adjustment to life and assist you in making healthy life changes. The first meeting with a counsellor will be for a consultation to determine what services will be most helpful to you. It will be necessary to schedule a regular time to meet with a counsellor depending on whatever goals have been set and your individual needs. The counsellor will assist you in as timely a manner as possible. Successful outcomes of the session depend on your courage and willingness to make a change. The counsellor will work with you to achieve your goals. Of course, all decisions are in your hands. Each session will begin at an appointed time and last for about 45 minutes.

Student development activities for employability

Career Development

The main aim of the IUKL Career Development unit is to help our students to identify and choose the best career options available to them. The process of career planning and development starts as early as when the student begins their programme with IUKL.

We act as a liaison between students, employers and various faculties within the University to establish and facilitate employment opportunities. We also support, train and lead students and our Alumni as they build their careers.

Internship

An internship is a brief period of on-the-job training in an organization. The main objective of internships is to educate and allow students to have the opportunity to acquire first-hand experience in the real working world while developing professional skills. Students will acquire knowledge of the continuously evolving world of work.

Internship is offered to Bachelor and Diploma students to fulfil the partial requirement of the particular degree or diploma and is offered in the final year of study, subject to the programme requirements.

Internships may take place in firms, public and private institutions, professional studios, international organizations, diplomatic agencies, cultural institutions and other organizations.
