Päädyin nykyiseen työhöni: My 2nd master of philosophy degree from Stellenbosch University earned me his job.

Näistä opinnoista on ollut minulle eniten hyötyä: Non of the studies from the University of Eastern Finaland worked for me. It was indeed a share waste oftime and money. Our Master of Arts degrees are being termed a generic master’s degree in the academic fraternity of Namibia. These sentiments have forced some of us to pursue a 2nd master’s degree instead of pursuing PhD studies. In addition, some critics are questioning as to why Namibia Students Financial Assistant Fund spent money on a program that lacks specialisation. Remember, the program costed about 12 800 Euros per year in tuition fees for each student, besides the stipend of 800 Euros per month. Moreover, it must also be emphasised that this is the only master’s degree that the two institutions of higher learning (UNAM and IUM), which offer teacher education in Namibia, find it hard to hire us as lecturers; they say we lack specialisation at master’s level. We, however, do not regret doing this master’s degree as it is prestigious in terms of the knowledge we have acquired, especially in educational research, teaching and undergraduate student supervision. However, its lack of specialisation and or correct wording to indicate speciality is costing us many employment opportunities.

Vinkkini samoista tehtävistä kiinnostuneille: Better pursue a specialised degree
