About

Career Services with a development heart.

UBIDS was founded on the conviction that business, integrated development and education are inseparable. Our Career & Industrial Liaison Office turns that conviction into careers — for our students, our partners and the communities of the Upper West Region.

Our background

Established alongside the University's transition to a full public institution, the Career Services office has grown into the central engine of UBIDS's industry strategy — running placements across 16 regions and 320+ partner organizations.

We exist for one outcome: every UBIDS student leaves with the experience, evidence and network to start a meaningful career.
