Hi Delia,
You know I’m about to start my last year of school, and I’m really struggling to decide what to study
at university. My parents want me to choose a degree that will lead to a financially profitable career –
something like management or computer science – but you know I’d rather study something like history
or philosophy, even if it means I will then need a Master’s degree to find a good job.
Anyhow, I’ve recently seen an announcement for a seminar that talks about the most ‘employable’ degrees
and about the unusual career paths that some people have taken, and I thought it might help me decide
what to do. I know you’re struggling with the same issues, so maybe you’d like to go with me?
Let me know what you think.
Gina

Studies show that the most popular Bachelor’s degree courses are healthcare, education and management.
However, a large number of students choose to get a Master’s degree to increase their employment prospects
and competitive edge, especially in business. Those with first degrees in computer science are much less likely
to enrol for a Master’s degree since they are readily employable upon graduation. Those with degrees
in education show the second-highest Master’s degree enrolment because of ongoing certification
requirements rather than personal choice. How many students continue to work in these fields after obtaining
Masters’ is a subject for further study.

PERCENTAGE OF STUDENTS WHO PURSUE A MASTER’S DEGREE

D
This is an answer to Gina’s post about choosing a degree course. Many young people choose to go into
computer science because it will lead directly to a well-paid job. However, I did a Fine Arts degree because I am
passionate about painting and design. Of course, my degree didn’t lead directly to a job, but after considering a
Master’s in education, I realised I could use my talents in other ways. Now I work for a design magazine, and I
also freelance as an interior designer. This is a lot harder than going straight into a stable job, but it’s never
monotonous, and every day is a new adventure.
