Reasons to study for a master's degree immediately after graduation

Many people delay getting a master's degree to start working, save money, buy a house, get married, etc., leaving their plans unfulfilled.

If you study for a master’s degree right after graduation, you will have a higher motivation to study. At this time, you are still used to going to class, doing homework and studying for exams. Compared to those who have been working for a few years and are used to the work routine, you will have a clear advantage.

Studying for a master's degree right after graduating from university helps people have a more general view of the profession and field they are pursuing. At the same time, this helps students outline more clearly their career goals and aspirations.

A master's degree also helps secure your job in the long run. Especially in a recession, when the job market is very competitive, you will have an advantage when applying for a job compared to candidates without a master's degree.

If you work in a government agency after graduation, assuming both you and a candidate with a bachelor's degree have equal qualifications and are downsized, the percentage of you being laid off will be lower than that of those with only a bachelor's degree.

Reasons to study a master's degree with work experience

Compared to those who study for a master’s degree right after graduating from university, you have an advantage in terms of professional knowledge. You understand the job market better and have a clearer idea when solving a problem in your graduation thesis. From here, knowledge will be much easier to absorb.

At the same time, when you enroll in a master's degree after working for a few years, you will know exactly what you want to achieve. For example, when you study for a bachelor's degree, you study the Hotel and Restaurant Management program, and realize that you need more knowledge about risk management, which will serve you better in your work.

If you’re working in marketing after your bachelor’s degree and you find yourself passionate about data science, a master’s degree can help you transition to the IT field. Even if you don’t want to change careers, learning about other fields can help you in your future career path.

By now, you should have saved enough money to pay for your tuition and you don’t have to worry about tuition fees like you did when you first graduated. If you are an excellent employee at the company you work for, you may also be sponsored to go to school. In addition, many universities now have scholarship programs for excellent students.

Each time of studying for a master's degree will bring different advantages and difficulties. Therefore, before making a decision, you need to carefully research all the information to have the most accurate choice for yourself.
