1) Because to secure the job career [sounds good but MBA from top univ is still preferable for breakthrough to senior mgmt, partly due to networking obtained during the course of study] 2) Salary factor [depends on which technical field you plan to specialise in. As you are already a engineer, next may be to set up own firm, or to tender for project? All these requires networking. If for satisfaction, it is entirely plausible to go for it] 3) Satisfaction [The latter point 2] 4) Migrate to other country [It opens door to big corporation, score some cekap migration scores, but then again, it depends on what you are pursuing in life (settle down here, or becoming a global citizen]. 5) or it is own dream to teach people or passion in endless learning curve. [IMO, this would be the best of all the options listed] As i know everyone have own dream and desire, so would you like to share your thoughts or opinion. Studying up to PhD is a passion more than a commitment to fulfill esoteric need or to cover physiological needs (money, fame, migration and other hygienic factors). Not only it will take up a chunk of your time (3 years to beyond) but it is a particular drain on one's finances too. Consider the need to take care of worldly needs (family, spouse, children, chasing for financial independence, etc) before embarking. Ultimately learning does not stop when one hits PhD. Plenty of stuffs to be discovered post doctoral. This post has been edited by SevenTwentyOne: Apr 8 2019, 09:30 AM |

I got masters degree because I was offered conditional offer at UiTM. Passed with bretty gud CGPA compared to my degree.
Then I worked for 2 months, then fedup with the micromanage (which I dont care honestly, but the supervisor is inefficient as hell and it hinders progress of my work), blatant gaslighting, and basically piss poor HR. But got like 2K during first month (for a fresh grad), a raise to 3k+ the next, but simply cannot tahan the cancer environment. I did great work, everyone noticed it, but the stress simply shave away any sanity I have left. Then I say screw it, leave with 24hr notice (with complimentary fight with boss why Im leaving) then straight to draft my PhD proposal. Met with my masters lecturer for a supervisor role, then she basically willing to cooperate with new tools, grants, funding etc. Now she even offered me paid training program, before I even began my PhD. One thing I must say, you MUST try to build connections during Postgrad. Postgrad isn't just something you attend for a scroll of achievement. Its about the journey when you build your network with academicians, make them notice you before you even want them to. Show dilligence and most importantly, enthusiasm in your field. This is where you show off your skills during group work, and that team member of yours might already worked at somewhere else. I'd say its much more controlled environment to make friends, without the industry/corporate shenanigans. This post has been edited by cend: Jul 16 2019, 07:30 PM |

Coursework and research is a rather complicated form of work, I do not know what to recommend to you. On this service you will find top writers who can help you with these tasks, I think they will advise you on any issue.

QUOTE(engrfeez @ May 7 2017, 12:54 PM) Hi All, Hmm.. All of the above. But also because my workplace is offering bursary and staff discount for a course that i'm quite interested.Please tell me what is your push factor to pursue study at the higher level? To be frank, I am dilemma to further study or continue with the current job career. I have Master in Engineering when I was doing it part time in 5 years back. I also working with engineering environment more than 10 years already. Recently, some of my friends told me that better to further study till PHD and complete the education cycle, however looking at our education system and management I don't feel it is a good choice to further. The numbers of jobless and fresh graduate are keep increasing. The salary either Bsc, Msc or PHD are not compatible with the current life where all the price are hikes and sooner will be more high. Basically what is drive you to study on the higher level? 1) Because to secure the job career 2) Salary factor 3) Satisfaction 4) Migrate to other country 5) or it is own dream to teach people or passion in endless learning curve. As i know everyone have own dream and desire, so would you like to share your thoughts or opinion. Thanks So why not ? |
