More Than 60 World-leading Universities to Arrive in Kuala Lumpur at QS Fair

International Masters and MBA programs to attend Malaysia events

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 Ritz
Carlton Kuala Lumpur.

The
World Grad School Tour and World MBA Tour are making their way across Asia, stopping
in KL on 13 – 14th November. These two free events cater to hopeful
masters and MBA candidates respectively, offering future students the chance to
meet admissions directors and explore educational options from across the
world.

More
than 60 highly ranked universities will be attending, representing 11 countries
— including 18 from the United Kingdom and 12 from the United States.

Schools
participating include2:

-       
University College London (Ranked 8th globally)

-       
Imperial College (9th globally)

-       
UC Berkeley (28th globally)

-       
HEC Paris (7th MBA globally)

-       
NYU (39th globally)

-        Universiti Malaya (70th globally, highest in Malaysia)

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 access expert preparation advice on crucial international
examinations, such as the GMAT, GRE and IELTS. 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.
