Academic Careers Office (ACO) at Collegium Civitas has been in existence since January 2003. The aim of the Academic Careers Office is to help students navigate through the labour market and encourage them to gain professional experience in the relevant field. Also, the objective is to effectively influence the attitude of students and motivate them to use their skills. On top of that, the ACO helps to build individual career development strategies from the first year of study and after graduation, guided by the fact that each of us is different and has different needs.
The aim of the Academic Careers Office is to support students and graduates of Collegium Civitas in acquiring professional practice during their studies, concentrating on how to enter the labour market and in actively seeking employment after graduation.
The Academic Careers Office also offers support to student organizations active at Collegium Civitas as well as psychological and mentoring assitance to our students.

FORMS OF SUPPORT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES
Some of our students may need support to fully participate in learning activities due to their disabilities. Not all students turn in with the start of the semester to inquire about possible forms of support. I would appreciate it if you would, if you see such a need, inform the student to contact me at pelnomocnik.niepelnosprawnosci@civitas.edu.pl
My role as Rector’s Plenipotentiary for Persons with Disabilities to enable students to participate fully in the educational process. It is also to provide you with organisational support for additional learning needs expressed by students.
