nice thought. I guess I will get any info about the pay and job security on Monday. about whether I will have more advantage after my MSc, I definitely will. I will be more qualified in the HSE field after my MSc even if I do currently have some professional qualification.

that's the reason why it is a difficult decision to make.

cc150615:

OP, you sound like you already have an idea of what you want to do....now you appear not even too buoyant to run dt Msc so your best bet would be AFTER you have received your offer letter, defer your Msc admission for a year, dt way even if the job wasn't as sweet as you want you can manage it for a year nd if you're so tired of the job by then you'd have saved up some money wic you can now use for the Msc but if the job turned out good you fire on. Now that's how to eat your cake and have it.
And may I tell you that in the industrial world, experience always covers up for all that whatever you think the Msc would add to your worth. You'll thank me later.
I'm passionate to see you succeed.

You must be the dumbest person on earth to be asking that type of question

Continue with school, the job will wait for you

Ain't you tired of begging your parents for money ??

Education is a waste of Money, time and energy

I never went to the university

I stopped at SS3, took WAEC and got 7 A's

All my friends and the people i know went to the university

Only me and 5 of my classmates went into business and we were the talk of the town, people were calling us stupid, dumb and useless

7 years later, 6 of us got so rich that we can buy and feed the whole town for 100 years

We send money to those guys that went to the university

Name a wealthy person and tell me the university they went to

Enemies of progress everywhere... Smh

Bro turn down the offer and continue with the M.Sc

In this recession you need a good degree not a good job.

rodDICK:


why do u advice this?

greggng:


If I were u I will bone the job and take the msc. Find a way to visit the governor of your state and appeal to him for help for that programme. Let him know how useful your education will be to the state and nation at large. Even in nairaland here there re so many cheerful giver who can fund your msc. To me education first before anything. Going to school at old age is stressful.

hello nairalanders I'm in a dilemma right now and I need real advice. I do hope I get a very wise one because I haven't enough time on my clock. the mods can also help me to push this to FP because its my future at stake.
I'm in a position where I don't know whether to continue schooling - MSc, or accept a job offer.
after my BSc, I didn't want to continue on with my course of study because I realised I hadn't much passion for it, I went in to study mathematics because it came my way and at the time I couldn't say no to an admission. so after nysc, I went in to do a PGD in geography and environmental management. i already had love for the geosciences. came out with a good result that qualified me for a MSc in any of the related discipline. I applied for environmental hazard management and got the admission.
at this point things became more difficult with the recession and it is clear to me that I won't be having any support. school fees has increased and the cost of running the MSc has gone high. on the other side, I've been applying for jobs as a HSE officer/manager which I have some years of experience working during the break within my programs. I just missed a job in nestoil because my guy in there didn't act fast to recommend me when there was emergency vacancy. however, because of the disappointment they have offered me a job as a HSE officer in a seismic company. they have asked me to come on Monday 30th January.
by calendar I'm suppose to start MSc lectures on the same date. I have drained my brain thinking of what to do....whether to take the job and differ my admission perhaps, or to go on with the MSc and ignore the job for now...
I know that a lot of you folks out there have been in a similar situation or you know someone who was. please your advice is needed, I don't want to make a mistake that I will regret...and I just have less than 2 days before the interviews on Monday morning.
please mods help me get this to front page. I'm depending on their advice. this is my last resort. thanks
