Many companies in the US will pay full or partial tuition for a graduate degree. If you have the time outside of work to take some classes then this option can make a lot of sense. I was able to get an employer to pay for about %70 percent of my degree. The degree immediately led to an internal promotion with a raise which more than covered the cost tuition that I paid out of pocket.
Why does getting a higher degree lead to a promotion? A lot of times I don't understand how companies work. I imagine if I were the owner, I'd not promote an employee just because he just got a higher degree.
Good question@@hitthedeck4115. In my case, I would have been promoted on the merit of my work alone so technically maybe getting the MS did not lead to the promotion. My management and I waited until I was done with the degree so that I could start at a higher rate. A lot of companies have multi tier salary brackets for technical staff. My MS essentially allowed me to jump up two salary brackets higher. Some places may give you a "merit of work" promotion and then a degree promotion but my work would not have done this so management and I decided to wait until I had my MS. Jumping a salary bracket was just too good of a financial opportunity so it was worth waiting a few extra months. Also, it feels like a promotion and came with a title change so I call it a promotion. Why was my employer motivated to let me jump an entire salary bracket? On paper I am more valuable and other companies are more likely to want to hire me. I am perceived to have more skills and I actually do have more skills than if I was just working instead of working and doing a MS. They "promoted me" (if you consider this a promotion) to keep me from leaving. They probably also consider me to be more capable with the MS and therefore ready for additional responsibilities than if I just had my work experience and BS but I believe that they mostly did it to retain me.
@@hitthedeck4115 I had a "merit of work" promotion coming up which would have moved me to the next level or bracket of pay and responsibility. My management and I decided to wait a few months for me to have my MS so that we could move me up two brackets. This is why I say that I was immediately promoted. Without it I would have still been promoted but my management and I were able to justify a better promotion. Depending on the company, your direct manager does not have the ability to get you promoted. In my case my managers advocated to HR and HR agreed because I had experience in addition to the Masters. HR viewed me as more valuable because I am more valuable. If my employer did not give me the amount of money that they are giving me then I am more likely to be poached by another company. My employer either pays me or they lose me. My specific situation applies to my circumstances and it was influenced by the job market in my specific industry and my geographic location. Results will vary depending on location, the economy, what industry you are in, and even your country. I got lucky and many engineers in the US can likely have similar results but my results do not apply to everyone. I hope this helps!
there's no fucking way im ever going to uni again! at the end of the day, you do you. but for me, the extra bit of salary you earn with a masters isnt worth the tuition fee, time and the hassle of working on useless shit.
100% agree. For me, it was just a way to move to the US as a student, then get a job and just live here since my country is not stable and safe anymore. I probably learned a thing or two, but it definitely was not worth all the money I spent for the degree.
@@OmarSN93 tbh, if you managed to study in the US *without a scholarship* to sponsor your study and have the finance to continue further study to get Master then you definitely are not coming from a poverty-stricken family of your society.
As an automotive engineering student whose school does not offer manufacturing processes for his/her major ,is it better to take an internship in a FabLab to get involved in manufacturing and what should he/she learn to be good at manufacturing? And is it beneficial to take a master's degree in manufacturing?
I'm at Texas A&M for my undergrad in Mechanical Engineering. Would you say an MSc in Mechanical Engineering at a good British college has equivalent cross-communication value to that of the Tsinghua degree you earned in China? I ask this because I cannot speak Mandarin; however, I want to develop a similar skill set to the one described in this video.
hey, I am not sure what field i want to pursue in particular like design or manufacturing in my masters. So, is it a good choice to do job for few years before doing masters.
Very informative video and relevant to my current situation as I am currently in the process of trying to make this decision. I graduated mechanical engineering 9 months and I am still on the hunt for something (I live in Canada). I did receive an offer shortly after I graduated to work as a cost estimation engineer for a large aerospace company which I naively declined. I did so because I wanted to work in an analytical role related to thermo-fluids, numerical analysis, simulations, CFD, FEA, etc. I am currently registered to start a master's of aerospace engineering which will begin in 3 months now. The program involves coursework, an internship, and a major project/research with an industry partner. I am also in process of interviewing for jobs and I very well might receive an offer before I start my program so I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to get stuck doing a role such as a process planner or cost estimator and then have no relevant experience in analytical work leaving me unable to switch. At the same time its an opportunity to network and make money. Thankfully I have financial security as I worked for many years in the restaurant business (started engineering at 27) so that's not an issue for me. The bigger issue is that I would like to get on with other aspects of life however I have to stay composed and consider the long term. A Master's could be better in the long run leading to higher job satisfaction and potentially more pay. Decisions decisions...
How did you get into that Chinese school with free tuition, stipendium and free housing? Did you graduate from the last school with a cum laude which provided you with these privileges?

Because its more knowledge and they know your capabilities have expanded?

informative , thanks👍
Hey man, you need to know we love how you mentoring us. Thank you.

nice ortho keyboard, its nice seeing your setup improve lol
im barely smart enough to watch this video let alone do the masters degree
Master’s classes are just a little harder than undergraduate classes actually. At least if you did well in undergrad.
Huong tsong in shengai is looking for a mechanical engineer ask tsong when you arrive there they're next to a school called Huang tsheng high school
Had to learn the language too. Now thats super impressive.
i bet companies love to have someone whos been living in china and speaking chinese.
all business trips will be yours :D
Congratulations bro, that is the first step to success.
How did you find the university and apply for that? can you make a video about applying

It was crucial for your admission to be a Chinese Citizen or at least having family there?
Actually the opposite. This was an international program.

I would get a masters degree to try and be at my dream school, FSU instead of crappy UCF
Doing masters in ME (design)now.....
How did you get into that Chinese school with free tuition, stipendium and free housing?
Did you graduate from the last school with a cum laude which provided you with these privileges?
Honestly I just applied and got the full scholarship
Could you share your research papers?
Great❤❤❤❤
Came out at the right when I most needed informations
Q:what is the best country to land my first job as manufacturing engineer?
But how to learn Chinese language sir
Saaaaar
Bing Chilling
Yes sir
Saaaaar pleeeease saaar
it gets you a better wife in china. period.
also go back to china
