Graduate Skills
Each skill listed in the ncl+ menu is part of the Newcastle Graduate Skills Framework (PDF: 274KB). The Framework was developed with employers to define a set of skills which, when added to your degree, will give you the skills you will need in your life beyond university.
It's not just about skills...
ncl+ opportunities are not just about developing graduate skills; they're about being accountable, having fun, meeting new people, taking responsibility and growing in confidence.
Whatever you do after University – work, further study, travel, become self-employed - you'll be better prepared.
All the skills in this section can be developed through ncl+ opportunities.
