These factors make me think to drop the idea of pursuing further in government
sector & go for master’s as I do believe that higher education always leads to a
promising career and a respectable position in the society, which everyone seeks in
today's life.
I did 2 to 3 projects in trident ltd Ludhiana during my work tenure. I had very good
experience in projects execution but not in a project management so to enhance my
skills in project management I decided to do study in project management so that I
can better understand the management for doing better work.
However, the big question was what to do and where. I had done research about the
master’s degree in India related to project management field, but I didn't found
anything interesting so I made up my mind to study overseas because I am in need of
practical skills which I can get easily by studying abroad whereas it is hard to gain
robust skill set acquired from pragmatic techniques in my country.
I started searching online about projects studies and I came across a course which
could help me a lot and that course was Master of project management at University
of South Australia.
I chose Australia because of global recognition of its universities and its highly reputed
higher education system, diversity of education and quality of ongoing scientific
research. Australia has 7 of the top 100 universities in the world. 6 of Australian cities are
among the 50 most liveable cities in the world thereby providing a safe and tolerant
environment for students. Australia has a history for innovation. There have been 16
Australian Nobel laureates which showcase the quality of research in Australian
Universities. I looked at other options across the world like State University of New York
in USA and University of Westminster in UK, but the course curriculum offered by
UNISA appealed to the most to me. Also, master’s degrees in USA or UK have a
requirement for GMAT score for entrance which I do not have at present. Australia has a
wide range of students from different countries and cultures, therefore, giving the
students a broad cultural prospective. Their strong focus on developing the knowledge
and skills that employers are looking can improve career progression significantly.
Australia is at the forefront of new technology and innovations. I am sure Australia is the
best option although it seems a bit expensive for now but quite reasonable when
considering the return in future as I can look forward for good paying jobs
Moreover, there is only one intake in India per year if that’s missed then students have to
wait for one full year whereas In Australia, there are multiple intakes. Similarly, Indian
method of assessment is mostly examination based while Australian education system
assesses students through assignments/seminars/essays etc.
Why Adelaide?
Adelaide is considered as Australia’s premier learning city. Moreover, the reason for
choosing Adelaide is that it is consistently voted as one of world’s most liveable cities. It
is recognized as the arts and culture capital of Australia and the extensive range of events
add to Adelaide’s liveable culture. Moreover, the living costs in Adelaide are cheaper than
Melbourne and Sydney so it is affordable for students. Also, Adelaide’s Mediterranean
climate is suitable for me as it’s neither very cold nor too hot. Adelaide’s public transport
system includes buses, trains and trams; each of which can get you to the far reaches of
the city. Student will find everything that need to know about Adelaide’s public transport
including timetables and route maps at the Adelaide Metro website and courtesy of the
Adelaide City Council.
This course is perfectly aligned with my previous work experience and studies. I am
working on electrical projects as Site Engineer in Medhaj Techno Concept Pvt. Ltd. I
want to enhance my skills and knowledge in project management. I think this course will
help me in understanding planning, implementation, delivery and risk involved in
projects This course will expand my professional knowledge and skills in projects. I
found this course best for my future professional life progression.
What is the scope of this course and its benefits to you;
As India is a developing country rolling large number of projects every year, so there is
good career scope and offers great opportunities for engineers with master’s in project
management, as project managers, project engineers, project consultants are required in
almost every industry. With the education from Australian institution, I will learn how to
deal with complex issues associated with the project’s management. It will also help me
to plan technically advance, economical and sustainable projects.
I want to work as project Manager. They work as a manager, a leader and an Engineer
with all field members, execution team and planning team.
Hopefully, with the support of my parents and by dint of my hard work in studies I would
become a successful person in the future and would also be able to help my nation
through my education.
