Decent Work and Economic Growth: RTU prepares graduates for the workforce, driving economic growth through entrepreneurship and innovation.

RTU is zealous about equipping its students with the necessary skills they can take when they join the labor force after graduating. It is a primordial need of every graduate to bring with them – to have an edge over other job seekers, as companies’ requirements and standards keep changing. RTU is gauging this reality as its springboard to enhance its programs tailored for its graduates as they navigate the competitive labor market.

Providing opportunities for students to engage in work-integrated learning activities like internships, immersion programs, and industry-related training is pivotal to being hired for a job with equitable pay.

The university’s “Career Talk” provides students with insights from industry professionals, preparing them for the demands of the job market. The university’s participation in the Business Analytics Program by the Asian Institute of Management equips students with cutting-edge data analysis skills, making them more competitive in the digital economy. Additionally, RTU empowers its students by participating in the “Persuasive and Strategic Communications for Business Leaders” program, enhancing their leadership and communication abilities, critical for success in business environments. The university’s “Continuing Employability Graduate Tracking” system monitors alumni employment outcomes, helping to refine educational programs to meet evolving industry needs. Moreover, RTU’s “Job Preparatory Activities and Online Career Fair” provide students with practical tools, guidance, and direct access to employers, facilitating smoother transitions into the workforce. Through these initiatives, RTU fosters not only student career readiness but also contributes to broader economic growth by producing a well-prepared, highly skilled workforce.
