🎓Advantage-disadvantage Why do you need a master's degree?

Anyone who is thinking or deciding to study for a master's degree, today we would like to share a pros-cons experience.

👍🏻 start with the advantages and reasons that should first.

🎓 increase specialized knowledge.

This is a big reason to pursue a master's degree, because after working or completing a bachelor's degree, many people feel that they want to understand the science more deeply, so a master's degree is not a bad choice.

🎓 increase life skills.

Master's degree requires a lot of management skills, whether it is time division, data study, research, etc., that learners must always improve themselves. If they study abroad, Master's degree will gradually train us to become self-sufficient.

🎓 have to practice communication skills.

Many times it trains us to have fast decision-making skills and to solve specific problems.

🎓 the opportunity to change the line.

Many people know that what they do at a bachelor's degree is not themselves at all. Master's degrees (some fields) are also born for these types of people, because they allow people who have just found themselves to start again.

🎓 prepared for the working world.

Unlike undergraduate studies, classmates and students are not students, but researchers. They are classmates who need to learn from each other. Their level of professionalism is greater than that of undergraduate studies. It prepares us to see what the world of future work is in our field of work.

🎓 increase employment opportunities.

It's another very important thing for people who want to go to Master's. Of course, going to Master's will increase our handicap in that field, but the other advantage is that Master's will also be the gateway to that profession. In short, classmates, professors, even masters who give temporary lectures can lead us to future work.

In short, adding connectionism to the work industry.

👎🏻 disadvantages of studying for a master's degree.

👉🏻 expenses.

This is really inevitable. The higher the cost of studying abroad, so many master's students have to do some extra work or funding to save their expenses, whether it's tuition, accommodation, living expenses, travel expenses, insurance, etc.

👉🏻 course may not be as it seems.

If you are lucky, the study may pass smoothly, the teacher is cute, the classmates are helpful, but many times everything is not easy. If you study abroad, you have to find a new environment to adapt, a different teaching system, etc. These things can easily discourage many master students.

If you don't want to experience this feeling, read the course details carefully, ask the alumni, and prepare as much as you can.

👍🏻 lot of work

If anyone who has to spin a paper, do research, or prepare a presenter along with work, then say that it takes a lot of patience, perseverance, and discipline.

👉🏻 less socializing time.

As a result of the last, of course, masters actually make new friends, but many times we have to disperse to work according to our own interests. This makes masters a lonely thing too.

I hope it will make it easier for your friends to decide on your next study.

And if many people still have doubts that after graduation, they shouldGo to college or work immediately.👈🏻 can read it in this post.

... Read moreถ้าใครกำลังค้นหาคำตอบว่า “ต่อโทดีไหม” หรือ “ควรเรียนต่อปริญญาโทไหม” เราว่าลองเริ่มจากการถามตัวเองให้ชัดก่อนว่า เราอยากได้ “ผลลัพธ์” อะไรจากการเรียนปริญญาโท เพราะบางคนเรียนเพื่อเพิ่มความรู้เฉพาะทาง บางคนอยากเปลี่ยนสายงาน บางคนอยากเพิ่มโอกาสการจ้างงานหรือคอนเน็คชั่นในวงการ ซึ่งเหตุผลแต่ละแบบจะพาเราไปเลือกหลักสูตร/มหาวิทยาลัยคนละทางเลย 1) เช็กลิสต์ก่อนตัดสินใจเรียนต่อ ป.โท - เป้าหมายอาชีพ: ตำแหน่งที่อยากไปถึง “จำเป็นต้องมีวุฒิ” ไหม หรือใช้ประสบการณ์/ใบเซอร์ก็พอ - สาขาที่จะเรียน: ต้องการความรู้เฉพาะทางจริงๆ หรือแค่อยากมีวุฒิเพิ่ม (ถ้าเป็นอย่างหลัง อาจเลือกหลักสูตรที่ยืดหยุ่นมากขึ้น) - เวลาและพลังงาน: ถ้าทำงานไปด้วย ต้องเผื่อเวลางานกลุ่ม การอ่านบทความ งานวิจัย และการพรีเซนต์ที่อาจถี่กว่าที่คิด - งบประมาณ: ไม่ใช่แค่ค่าเทอม แต่รวมค่าหนังสือ ค่าเดินทาง ค่าที่พัก/กินอยู่ ค่าประกัน (โดยเฉพาะถ้าไปต่างประเทศ) 2) เลือก “คอร์ส” ให้ตรง ลดความเสี่ยงคอร์สไม่เป็นไปตามที่คิด สิ่งที่เราแนะนำให้ทำจริงๆ คืออ่านรายละเอียดรายวิชา (course syllabus) ดูสัดส่วนงานเดี่ยว/งานกลุ่ม วิธีประเมินผล และถามศิษย์เก่าหรือคนที่กำลังเรียนอยู่ ว่าอาจารย์/ระบบการสอนเป็นยังไง ตรงนี้ช่วยลดโอกาสเจอความเฟลจากความคาดหวังได้เยอะมาก 3) ถ้าหวังเปลี่ยนสายงาน ป.โทช่วยได้ แต่ต้องวางแผน หลายคนเลือกต่อ ป.โท เพื่อ “เริ่มใหม่” เราว่าทำได้จริง โดยเฉพาะสาขาที่เปิดรับคนต่างพื้นฐาน แต่ควรเตรียมพอร์ต/โปรเจกต์ให้สอดคล้องกับสายงานใหม่ เช่น ทำโปรเจกต์เล็กๆ ฝึกงาน หรือเก็บใบรับรองควบคู่ไปด้วย เพื่อให้บริษัทเห็นทักษะที่ใช้ทำงานได้จริง ไม่ใช่แค่วุฒิ 4) เทคนิคจัดการชีวิตตอนเรียน: กันเหนื่อยและกันโดดเดี่ยว - แบ่งเวลาเป็นบล็อก: วันอ่านเปเปอร์ วันทำงานวิจัย วันพัก (กันหมดไฟ) - สร้างกลุ่มเพื่อนเรียน: ช่วยกันสรุปบทความ/ติวก่อนพรีเซนต์ จะรู้สึกไม่โดดเดี่ยวและทำงานไวขึ้น - คุยกับตัวเองเป็นระยะ: ตอนเรียนต่อปริญญาโท งานเยอะเป็นเรื่องปกติ ให้ทบทวนเป้าหมายและปรับแผนได้ตลอด สุดท้ายเราเห็นด้วยมากๆ ว่า “ไม่มีถูกหรือผิด” ในการต่อโท ลองชั่งน้ำหนักจากความสำคัญ ความจำเป็น และความต้องการของตัวเอง ถ้าคำตอบชัด การเรียนปริญญาโทจะกลายเป็นการลงทุนกับตัวเองที่คุ้มและไปต่อได้ไกลขึ้นจริงๆ
