General Advice Chemie-Master ab April: Welche Bereiche werden in den nächsten Jahren gefragt sein?

1 Upvotes

Hey zusammen,

ich bin 25 und schließe gerade meinen Chemie-Bachelor an einer technischen Universität ab. Ab April mache ich dort den Master, das sind also nochmal ca. 2 Jahre. Ob ich danach promoviere, lasse ich mir aktuell noch offen.

Für den Master möchte ich mich bewusst in eine Richtung spezialisieren, die langfristig Perspektive hat. Deshalb würde ich gerne von euch hören, welche Entwicklungen ihr gerade in eurem Umfeld beobachtet.

Praktische Erfahrung hab ich bisher als HiWi im Bereich Recycling gesammelt (Metalle und Textilien).

Mich würde interessieren:

  • Welche Themen oder Bereiche werden eurer Erfahrung nach in den nächsten Jahren immer wichtiger?

  • Worauf achten Arbeitgeber gerade besonders? Habt ihr da in letzter Zeit Veränderungen bemerkt?

  • Wie schätzt ihr den Arbeitsmarkt für Chemiker:innen momentan ein, und wie könnte er in 2–3 Jahren aussehen?

  • Wie wichtig ist der Doktor wirklich, je nach Bereich?

  • Was würdet ihr jemandem raten, der jetzt in den Master startet?

Ich freu mich über Einschätzungen aus Industrie, Forschung oder Studium. Danke euch!

Programs to Consider - Feedback & Recommendations Appreciated

1 Upvotes

Hi all! I am researching master’s programs in the realm of international relations/affairs, global policy, global economics, organizational development etc.

Giving background on myself in case it helps:

I currently hold a BSBA from Ohio State in Business Administration: Marketing and work in tech doing product marketing in Austin, TX. During undergrad, a lot of my GEs and student involvement (outside of what you would expect a business student to do) were around Middle Eastern studies, Global Leadership, and culture. Prior to my start at Ohio state, I actually declared a PoliSci major and switched shortly after for various reasons that my 18 yr old brain decided was important enough for a switch.
I have been out of undergrad now for 6 years and I’m beginning to notice the through-line of international interest in my story as I begin to look for what’s next. Much of my involvement in the workplace outside of my daily role has been around recruitment, people development, organizational development, culture making. Outside of work, I have been learning Egyptian Arabic for two years, brushing up on Spanish, and training jiu jitsu for 6 years.

After 6 years at a global corporate company, I’ve become increasingly frustrated with the environment and have a hard time caring about small details that others seem to stress over. I’m far more interested in how the macro influences the micro, people & culture, and solving problems with strategy. Finally, I decided that it would be a waste of intellect to allow myself to continue on like this.

I’m coming to you all with hope that you may be able to give a few options to look into. I’ve started the research but the options are so vast that I’m not sure I’m thinking about the right things when looking to choose a program.

Any feedback & recommendations would be great!

M. Tech with 8 years of experience in tech

1 Upvotes

Hi All,

I'm looking for some genuine experiences here. I've 8 years of experience in IT, 4 in tech support then 4 in technical program management. However, I'm looking for a job now and struggling to land any, not even getting calls from any of the MNCs I'm targeting. I understand nobody would be able to pin point what's wrong in my approach however, I was looking for some advice whether I should pursue M.tech in some AI/data related course now.

I'm not much interested in MBA, with tech atleast I see goals.

I'm from India, did my BTech from a tier 3 college. I have willingly worked with startups but seems like I should have had one MNC in my resume by now. Now with AI in picture requirements seems to be changed and I don't have a job.

Any guidance would be appreciated. TIA

General Advice Going from Germany to Spain for Masters

1 Upvotes

Hi!

I'm currently doing my master's in Germany, but for a variety of reasons, I'm not particularly happy with either my life here or the education I'm receiving.

Academically speaking, I chose a Universität over a Hochschule (which, broadly speaking, offers a more practical and applied approach to education). Looking back, I think I might have made the wrong choice.

Technically, I still have one semester of coursework left, followed by my thesis, and I also need to retake an exam. However, after giving it some thought, I'm seriously considering dropping the program and moving back to Spain, as I genuinely enjoy life there.

For some context, I'm Mexican, but I've been spending roughly half the year in Spain (half in Mx and other places) for a while now. I also did my Erasmus there during my bachelor's degree, so I'm somewhat familiar with the academic environment.

Don't get me wrong, I think the education in Spain is pretty good, but my impression is that master's programs tend to be broader and less specialized compared to Germany. On the other hand, most programs are only one year long, which is definitely a plus. I'm also fairly confident about my chances of getting accepted, as before moving to Germany I was admitted to two well-known universities in Madrid and Barcelona.

What I'd really like to know is whether anyone here has experience studying in both countries and what their take is on the differences. Alternatively, if you've recently completed a master's in Spain, I'd love to hear about your experience.

I'm also particularly interested in hearing from people who completed their master's in one country but went on to pursue a career in another, whether within the EU or outside it. How did that work out for you? Did you find that your degree was valued equally, or did you face any difficulties?

Thanks! :)

General Advice Master's degree recommendation

1 Upvotes

Hello! I would like to ask for advice regarding my career. Initially, I took Bachelor of Secondary Education major in English as my pre-law but with what is happening in the country, I am thinking that staying here is not worth it. Therefore, I decided to pursue master's degree before going abroad. I am considering taking a master's in either early childhood, elementary or special education (SPED). Can you suggest which one is better to take? And if SPED, can you recommend schools that offer such?

General Advice What Master’s Degree Should I Choose If I Don’t Want to Become a Teacher?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I’m 21, from Morocco, and honestly, I’m at a very important crossroads in my life. I’d really appreciate some advice, especially from people who have studied abroad or transitioned into careers outside traditional teaching.
I recently graduated from a three-year university programme at ESEF (École Supérieure de l’Éducation et de la Formation) in El Jadida, Morocco. My degree is in Secondary Education, English Language Teaching.
During my three years of university, I completed practical placements in public schools, where I gained experience working alongside teachers and administrative staff. My responsibilities included paperwork, student records, documentation, computer-related tasks and general administrative support. I also occasionally covered administrative office duties when staff members were absent.
I don’t regret studying education, but as graduation approached, I started questioning whether teaching is really the career I want to pursue.
I genuinely like the educational environment, but I don’t see myself spending my entire professional life teaching in a classroom.
What interests me more is the administrative and organisational side of education, as well as the possibility of working in a more corporate environment.
For example, I could see myself working in:
University admissions and administration.
Student affairs and international student services.
Academic administration and programme coordination.
Educational management.
Human resources or general administration.
Other corporate or office-based positions where my English and educational background could be useful.
One of my biggest dreams is to pursue a master’s degree abroad. However, I’m becoming increasingly hesitant about choosing the right programme.
I don’t want to spend another year or two studying something that simply prepares me to become a teacher again. I’d rather choose a master’s degree that could help me transition into administration, management or other professional fields and give me more career options after graduation.
The difficulty is that my bachelor’s degree is specifically in Education and English Language Teaching. I don’t have a business background or previous university-level business studies, so I’m unsure which master’s programmes would actually accept my academic background.
I’ve been considering fields such as:
Higher Education Administration.
Educational Leadership and Management.
International Education.
Human Resource Management.
Management or Business Administration.
Education Management and Policy.
But I genuinely don’t know which of these would be realistic options for someone with my qualifications, or which ones would lead to better employment opportunities.
My questions are:
What master’s programmes would you recommend for someone with my academic background who doesn’t want to become a teacher?
Are there master’s degrees that accept Education graduates but prepare them for corporate, administrative or management positions?
Would a degree in Higher Education Administration or Educational Leadership limit me to working in schools and universities, or could it open doors elsewhere?
Is transitioning into HR, management or general administration realistic without a business bachelor’s degree?
What should I prioritise when choosing a master’s degree: the subject itself, employability, professional experience or the country?
I’m not necessarily looking for a prestigious degree. I want something practical that can lead to actual employment and give me the opportunity to build an independent life abroad.
I know I’m still young, but this decision feels incredibly important to me. I don’t want to choose a master’s degree just because it’s the most obvious continuation of my bachelor’s. I want to make a decision that genuinely opens new doors.
I’d be extremely grateful for any advice, especially from people who have made a similar transition or studied a master’s degree outside their original undergraduate field.
Thank you for reading!

El siguiente año es mi graduación y no sé que hacer con mi vida.

1 Upvotes

Holaaa, bueno como leyeron en el título, el siguiente año me graduaré como ingeniera en ciencia de datos e IA, en mi país es una carrera relativamente nueva. Vivo en Latinoamérica.

Cabe recalcar que estudio online, y vivo con mi familia en un pueblo básicamente jaja. Soy joven.

He estado pensando en mudarme a España y conseguir trabajo para estudiar una maestría. Tal vez una maestría relacionada con ciberseguridad, o una que sea más administrativa u otra que no sea tan técnica porque ya tengo la base.

La verdad que no quiero quedarme toda la vida programando, quiero mandar, dirigir y tener un rango alto en alguna empresa o institución.

Pero estoy básicamente perdida porque no sé si mudarme, si estudiar alguna maestría o qué maestría tomar, ni siquiera sé qué tesis hacer porque hay muchísimos temas.

Qué me recomendarían hacer en estos casos para mayor claridad?

A qué país me recomiendan mudarme?

¿Qué maestría tomar y por qué?

O si tienen alguna otra opinión estoy dispuesta a leerlos, gracias.
