8K for a master in NUS, 2years?

Kaplan charging nearly 20K for the simple course.
Anyone know SIM GE how much huh?

Thanks.

SIM Warwick = 32K. ZERO exams. All by assignments. FYP is 50% of the entire course's grade weightage

NUS Post Grad course requires minimum GPA 3.0 throughout. If You don't make this grade for more than 1 or 2 subjects consecutively you are out. Keong can testify to this I believe.

I don't know about Kaplan. But its very misleading to earn a M.Eng but what you did was MOT instead.

Side track a bit,

Antz621, you have 2 degrees and 2 master degrees?

I am impressed!
How come u did a second degree?

 

[Antz621]

I am impressed!
How come u did a second degree?

3 reasons:

1. Staying ahead of the game. Can't wait till you need it then study right?
2. Open a 2nd door of opportunity
3. Addicted to studying...

Hi Antz, I drop you a PM. I find it rather amazing to have 2 degree and you going to take your 2nd master. The time, money and effort spent.

I read about MOT, and it seem it function like a MBA specifically for engineering department. I hope I got it right here.

The journey doesn't end for me yet. In the Pipeline is another 2 Masters and/or a Doctorate in PM perhaps...

Money is recoverable. Just a matter of time. Time is not; but is well spent on knowledge else I would probably waste it on par game instead . The contacts and friendships I made in all these courses are priceless. And I look forward to more of these in the planned future courses.

Effort? Intangible but what started off as a simple promise to my deceased Auntie to sign on with the Air Force and finance a degree for myself got me further instead with the 3 degrees and 2 diplomas that are in my resume. She was, and still is, my source of inspiration in pushing through this journey.

Something like that... But with emphasis on Engg Mgmt areas instead of the usual cocktail of Finance/Acct/OB/HRM stuff that you get in an MBA. At 8K, I would give it a shot; else go for the more assured route of SIM-Warwick but you pay 4x more. Drop Kaplan altogether. In terms of Uni Branding UniSA is hopelessly outclassed by both Warwick and NUS. And the fees is > 1/2 of that of Warwick. I seriously don't see the benefits of doing it other than tagging a fanciful M.Eng on your namecard

Bro, after MPM and PMP.. why not try system engineering certification?
INCOSE - Certification

Did anyone take up this course?

Any reviews? Hard to learn?

 

[-Wanderer-]

Has anyone taken this MSc before? Mind sharing or giving your reviews on it?

 

[Cryophoenix]

Anyone has experience in this course? Is it hard to enter? I did my undergrad in NUS so perhaps there could be advantage.
