Postgraduates to Achieve a Superior Dimension in the World of Education

Gone are those days when one used to choose a typical course for higher education and fulfil his/her dads dreams. Well, the buzzword that is making todays students rethink about building their careers is employability and not human emotions. This means that one who have studied science might have actually desired to enter the field of advertising, or one who have always wanted to be a professional photographer might have been compelled to become a engineer just to make his/her family happy. Things have changed because choosing the wrong degree might leave todays graduates in a dilemma and this might further lead them to nowhere. Postgraduate qualification is a key to find the right path to success The honours degree system in Britain that is globally recognised ask students to take a decision at 15 as what A-Level subjects would they choose to study so that they can finally decide to take up their preferred degree course by 16 or 17. In respect to this, the consultant of the Careers Group at Goldsmiths, University of London, Vanessa Freeman said that students keep changing their minds every now and then. She moreover said that students while studying in universities get the opportunity to meet a diverse peer group and efficient lecturers who come up with a lot of new ideas and suggestions that can help one choose the right career path. According to experts, whats important is earning a postgraduate qualification that can be the only way to decide what course you should choose for higher education. Master degree courses that are geared specifically towards potential industries are now being eyed upon by undergraduates. Niche Master Programmes are always High-scoring University of Leedss Director, Bob Gilworth who looks after the department of career services came up with points that differentiate the niche master degree programmes from others. What he meant was that students must be inspired to focus upon master job-oriented programmes like those offered in Petroleum Engineering, Financial Mathematics and Geophysics.

On the other hand, there are other master programmes completing which one might have to convince his/her employers to make them feel these qualifications earned are recognised. Courses initiating close industry contacts are gaining recognition Career enthusiasts are now taking pleasure to enrol in courses that bring close industry contacts. Plenty of courses have been introduced that can help students to enter creative industries as well as those related to media. A lot of students were found enrolling in the 2-year master degree course in Game Designing at the National Film and Television School in Beaconsfield instead of choosing typical master degree programmes in Science or Arts. In fact, there were graduates who chose to enter into the field of advertisement instead of going for their first degrees in allied subjects. Buckinghamshire New Universitys leader of Masters in Advertising, George Boyter said that what matters now for individuals is their enthusiasm and curiosity that can actually lead them to success and prosperity. Similarly, the music industry now offers incredible opportunities than what it used to offer earlier. Students pursuing MA in music industry promotion and management at the University of Central Lancashire also include individuals who have graduated in communication, fashion and business. Students Experiences of making changes in career decisions Students have been inspired a lot from courses in travelling and volunteering. Ross Edgeworth, a student aged 33 says how he regained his interest and progressed accordingly by being a graduate with a degree in Sports Science. Later, he enrolled in sustainable development and disaster management under the University of Northumbria. Believe it or not, he now works as a programme-funding manager in one of UKs reputed fair trade organisations. A 42 year-old Maths and Computer Science teacher, named Vern Nelson who had earlier taught in St Lucia felt to make changes in his teaching

career. He kicked off with a course in actuarial science and later shifted to financial Mathematics since it catered well to his initial degree which he earned in Maths and Computer Science from University of West Indies at Barbados.
