Do placements form part of universities in Germany or other European countries, or is job search the student's responsibility?

Universities in Germany and most European countries do not offer traditional campus placements like those in some other countries. The job search is primarily the student's responsibility after graduation.

However, universities do provide support services such as:
- Career Services: Job boards, application workshops, and employer networking events.
- Internship programs: Partnerships like Erasmus+ may help with internships and work placements, but students must apply independently.

You will have access to resources and guidance, but securing a job is up to you.
