Aims
  1. You are able to describe the psychological topics and work fields you are interested in.
  2. You are able to describe your interests, qualities, weaknesses and learning objectives with respect to the work fields of your interest.
  3. You are able to summarise the occupational profiles / tasks that apply in two of your preferred work fields.
  4. You are able to identify a debate or trend that engages the professionals in two work fields of your choice.
  5. You are able to describe to what extent this debate or trend influences your expectations of both work fields. 
Content
Maybe so far you have just sort of let the programme all wash over you, without wondering what psychological themes make your heart tick? Without asking yourself in which fields of practice you want to be employed in the future? And without considering whether the work fields of your preference really fit with your personal strengths and competencies?

Graduates often sigh: "I wish I had thought about my future career way earlier". Therefore in Me & My Career (MMC) we challenge you to stop avoiding these career questions and to start taking them seriously. You will do so, by working on two compulsory assignments:
  • Your personal profile 'My Interests, Qualities and Goals' (appr. 8 hours)
  • Your log 'My Work Field Orientation', A and B (appr. 20 hours).
Examination
Both assignments will be graded by your MMC-counselor. You will find the assessment criteria and deadlines in the Blackboard Organization Me & My Career.
Please note: you will not be able to complete your bachelor programme without completing both MMC-assignments. 
 
Required materials
Blackboard
The Blb Organization Me & My Career provides you with lots of background materials and checklists, to support you in doing the assignments. Here you will also see the workshops you can take and how to contact your MMC- workfield counselor.
