I see a lot of candidates applying for Post graduate making loads of mistakes in their career choice.
This is to be expected as many never gave a though to the course they read, as it was 'circumstantial'. however, with your post graduate, I expect some careful planning and caution, This is your life for God's sake. every decision especially on your career has a life lasting effect.
I will help make some corrections in the mind of many who which to go for their masters study.
I observed most applicants dont know the difference between Msc and Professional Masters.
and those that do are asking me which is better? lemme clear the air once and for all.
Both are great, depending on your career Path.
Your career path should be one of these 3 Paths
1. Management
2. Academics/Research
3. Expert/Professional
you need to decide which path is yours, but for most field you need to be an expert first before going into management.
There are 3 types of masters Degree in Unilag
1. academic masters e.g M.Sc IRPM
2. professional masters- masters by research e.g M.Phil
3. professional masters - masters by course-work e.g MBA
MSC vs Professional:
1. Professional courses are great if you want to make money fast - easy to gain employment with these type of certificates2. Professional courses are great if your path is industry base and field work is important to you.
3. Professional courses are designed for managers and leaders of men and materials
4. You cant use your professional course for PHD, you must do MSC for that
5. You cant use your professional course for lecturing, you must do MSC for that
6. It good to have One professional course on your resume, more relevant and repected by companies
7. More expensive than regular Msc
8. Mostly Part time
9. Professional courses are great if you are working on your business.
10. Msc is 100% research and academic work. Great for efficos and would be lecturers/researchers/New Discoveries
