Please i will like to find out if masters in public health is a lucrative course. And if it can get me a good job in the UK?

Yampotatocarrot:
Good day, house

Please, I got a conditional offer of admission from University of Bradford (M.Sc Medical Bioscience)

One of the conditions is payment of 2000 pounds, while the other is providing IELTS or equivalent test result.

I wrote them a mail, asking for exemption from providing that result on the basis of my high school and undergraduate education. Also attached my WASSCE result and certificate of English proficiency to the mail I sent to them.

I'll like to know, are their conditions ironclad, or is there a chance they'll reconsider and rescind their earlier decision?

If there is anyone schooling at UB, please, how is the school and the area generally?

@ Omopapa and others

Howfar @yampotatocarrot
Pls has uni.of Bradford gotten back to you on IELTS exemption?
I sent u a mail request already.

IMPORTANT ADVICE ON SECURING EMPLOYMENT

No course you study will give you automatic job opportunity for PR. There is nothing like the best course to study. We only suggest you to seek shortage occupation list job because of the minimum financial earnings giving you more chance. However, this will not guarantee you any job.

People that are not even in shortage lists can even get full time job and resume immediately after their studies as there are numerous examples of these. What will enable you secure job in the UK for PR are your skills, competences and experience. These will enable you stand out.

For example, if there is only one position for Mechanical Engineering in an organisation and about three people reach the final interview stage. What will make you get the job is what you will add to the company that the other candidates might not add. If you have good programming and can apply machine learning and AI to improve your company, then you will most likely get the job as opposed to others who dont have those skills. Soft skills like good interpersonal and project management skills can also be the difference between success and failure.

Nope, Sir. They only sent me a message confirming the receipt of the documents. But nothing yet on their decision

Masters in Public Health is NOT a lucrative course, unfortunately (strictly my opinion).

If I may ask (for the sake of clarity and to help others), what type of job roles EXACTLY do you think your MPH degree will stand you out in the UK? Or anywhere in the world for that matter?

Thanks for this write-up, but how does a fresh graduate get this experience?

Or, is it allowed in the UK for one to "volunteer" in an organisation related to his field of study even while still a student? If acceptable, will that count as an experience?

Of course, you can get a job without experience if you have the skills and competences. It should also be noted that Internship, Placement, Volunteerism and NYSC also counts as experience. So a graduate should have acquired experience.
What information? Be explicit so others will benefit or no one will believe you.

You can volunteer not necessarily in your field of study and it will count as experience.

Hello house. I applied to University of Nottingham and I want to know if people are being granted admission during this period.

I was notified that complete application has being received first week in March and my friends there told me that the admission process is usually short (2-3weeks).

I am yet to get a response from them till date although I understand because of the pandemic but the issue is I want to apply for scholarship which I can only do when I get offer letter. The scholarship is supposed to close 1st of May (I don't know if it will be postponed because of this covid situation)

Please, does any have any info about the university? If applicants are being granted admission or if deadline dates will be postponed?

I believe most schools ain't operating at this time. Or in a limited capacity. I applied to four school's. Bedfordshire was the only one that replied with an offer within a day. Even though its not my preferred uni.

Hello guys, great work you're doing here.
Well, I have an issue and I would need your advice.
I'm about paying part of my fees but I live in ph and the state is currently in lockdown due to the pandemic I no one knows how long it would remain this way. Can I go ahead to pay the fees or should I wait till the ban on restriction of interstate movement is lifted because, I wouldn't want to pay the fees and not be able to travel out of the state for the visa interview as at when due besides, I dont know if I would be eligible for a refund if that happens.
Guys, pls what do u think?

Thanks as I anticipate your response.

I sent the school a mail concerning this but they couldn't give me a concrete answer.

It's better you wait till this global issue ends. Why the rush ? Even no students on campus now and they cannot give you a concrete answer as they themselves don't know when this Coronavirus issue will ends. Western countries are loosing their citizens in hundred everyday. So this not a time to take such step. When everything is normalized then one can continue.

Okay, thanks

Ok, thanks for the advice

Well, that shouldn’t resort to calling someone a psycho. That’s hella rude!

Franklyn4:

there is absolutely nothing to get disappointed about, are you not learning from the disagreements? some days must be like this........this will make people to be sure of what they want to post before they do....... or simply attribute what they wrote as their personal opinion......

There is nothing like disappointment here!!!! just air your own part of the argument like they did.

Please, someone should explain this better for me. It's about account statement.

My question is: Must the funds be in my personal account or I can just use my sponsor account statement directly? I read some comments concerning the account and I'm little bit confused. I'll be glad if someone can explain it better.

Alright sir.please do let me know if it was granted.
However I sent a mail request earlier.please check.

Hey guys, just a thought. With the projection that hundreds will lose their jobs in the UK when this crisis is over, I was thinking, the probability of a student getting a 20hr per week job will be very minuscule.

What do you guys think?
