Last week I was asked to come talk to students about what it is like to study International business master. And how many business students show up? One. Only one person of three whole classes. Does that mean that only a few consider a master's degree or are they all leaving to a different university? For me it was always clear that I'd get a master's degree. It is a great way to deepen your knowledge and I'm quite sure a master's degree makes you more attractive for employers.
I think many choose not to get a master's degree because they do not want to study two additional years. Honestly, I haven't even "noticed" these two years. What I mean by that is that time has flown so quickly that I cannot tell the difference between 5 and 3 years. I also feel more ready to start working- something I didn't feel 2 years ago. Yes, at times there is a tiny voice in my head saying "you still don't know anything", which I guess is normal. You learn by doing of course, but I also know I know a lot more now than I did 2 years ago.
It's not exactly surprising that only one person showed up to find out about our master's program. From all the people I studied with only I continued at LTU. Some became "civilekonomer", other continued elsewhere and quite many begun to work. I'm sure all of us are doing pretty good no matter what we decided, and I'm really happy about choosing LTU for my master's.
