Post by: vce01 on December 17, 2008, 10:59:16 pm
k my heading probably doesn't make a whole lot of sense but i just wanted to know, is there some information portal where i can find what different job prospects there as a result of studying different courses?
eg: what career positions could be available if i undertook commerce/law?

Don't most courses have some sort of job opportunities section?

You should look at the course prospectus...they generally mention what job opportunities exist for graduates (though, at a somewhat exaggerated level?)
