Dear Mackem_Beefy,

I am planning to start my career as an academician in the Middle East ,I'm just hoping that my qualification upon completion of my studies would be good enough to kick off my career :-)

Dear BilboBaggins ,

My future planning sounds just like husband's. The thing is i really want to start a career in academia and i'm willing to do extra hard work for it. My future planning is to work as an academician in middle east. I'm just hoping that everything would work out fine. I'll be really grateful if you can give me some advice on this.Once again ,thanks for your reply. :-)

Dear Reenie ,
Hope you're doing fine. Don't say sorry ,its perfectly fine :-)

Dear Mackem_Beefy,
Hope you're doing fine.First and foremost ,i would like to thank you for spending your valuable time replying me. Your reply is greatly appreciated.I agree with you that Msc Computing is quite a challenge ,added the fact that I'm from a business background.However ,i think I'm up for the challenge :-) I even checked the course structure of the programmme and i think if i put in effort ,i would do just fine.

Yes ,one of my main concerns was whether i will be able to secure a job upon completion of my conversion course ,bearing in my mind that i would be competing with IT students who completed their undergraduate degrees in IT.Another factor that i'm considering in choosing IT conversion course is the fact that the rising of business information systems field these days?perhaps ,upon my completion ,i would be able to land a job as an IT consultant considering i have the blend of IT and Business knowledge?

My long term target is to become an academician..Do you think its possible for me to land a job as an academician as soon as i finish my conversion course. What worries me is the fact that a lot of universities these days opt for lecturers who are from a research background compared to those who did taught courses during their masters. I'm still in the process of considering my options as i have just recently finished my undergraduate degree.I'm planning to start my conversion course by next June.Do you think i should start it next year or should i wait a little longer and gain any working experience first?

Once again ,i would like to thank you for spending your valuable time replying me.Thank you.

Hey guys ,
Hope you guys are doing fine.I just finished my undergraduate degree in International Business and i personally think i made a disastrous decision in choosing my undergraduate degree.Hence ,i'm thinking about pursuing IT conversion course for my Master's degree.Just wanted to know ,what chances i have if securing an IT job upon completion of my masters and whether there's a chance for me to become an academician afterward.Your replies are greatly appreciated.Thank you.
