LONDON,
UK - Media OutReach - October 25, 2019 – As
the job market becomes ever more competitive, more and more employers are
looking at postgraduate qualifications to distinguish candidates from the
crowd. For the MBA program in particular, global employer demand for graduates
has risen by 13% year-on-year, and by 18% in Asia1.
Reflecting
this trend, QS Quacquarelli Symonds, known for publishing the World University
Rankings, will be hosting the largest postgraduate events of the year at the
Suntec exhibition centre.
The
World Grad School Tour and World MBA Tour are making their way across Asia,
arriving in Manila on 18 – 19th November. These two free events
cater to hopeful masters and MBA candidates respectively, offering Singaporeans
the chance to meet admissions directors and explore educational options from
across the world.
More
than 40 highly ranked universities will be attending, representing 14 countries
— including 11 from the United States, and 7 each from Canada and Singapore.
Schools
participating include2:
-
National University of Singapore (Ranked 11th globally)
-
University of Pennsylvania (15th globally)
-
New York University (39th globally)
-
Michigan Ross (19th MBA globally)
-
CEIBS (25th globally)
Furthermore,
as the costs of higher education continue to increase, all attendees at either
event will become eligible to apply for a pool of scholarships worth $7
million, offered by participating schools and partnered institutions. $1.3
million are entirely exclusive to event attendees.
Fairgoers
will also be able to meet with the administrators of the IELTS and GRE
examinations, two leading assessments in international study. Panels and
seminars presented by attending schools will offer unique expert insights into
the admission and application process.
To
enable attendees to fully contextualise the role of a postgraduate
qualification within their career path, a professional career coach will offer
career advice and feedback on CVs.
Alumni
from prominent postgraduate programs will also attend to share their
experiences and insights with the future candidates.
The events are free to attend, with
registration open online.
