Why You Should Pursue a Bachelor’s Degree

The most obvious and, for many people, the most important reason for obtaining a Bachelor's Degree is to increase their earning potential, but the benefits are much farther-ranging than a higher salary. A college education, be it full -time or part-time, prepares you socially, mentally and intellectually for the world of work and more crucially, your adult life. You will learn to think analytically, be more focused and disciplined and at DIMENSIONS International College, work with people from culturally diverse backgrounds.

Money


It’s not the most important thing, but it does make a difference, and studies show that those with a college education earn more on average than those without.

Socialise, Communicate


One of the best things about going to college or university is undoubtedly the people you meet. Some are only acquaintances, others will be friends for life, either way one thing is certain, they will all be very different. At DIMENSIONS InternationalCollege, students get to interact with people from all walks of life. Socialising and working in this kind of environment have a huge impact on an individual's written and verbal communication skills which are the skills https://dimensions.edu.sg/academic-courses/school-of-higher-education/that employers look for. These skills will influence most parts of your life both professionally and personally.

Job Opportunities


Earning a degree at DIMENSIONS International College will vastly increase your marketability as a professional. The discipline, communication and analytical skills you will hone as part of your educational journey at DIMENSIONS International College are attractive qualities in an employee. Not only this, the range of viable career options that are open to you is greatly enhanced. Not only will attending college provide you with networking opportunities but also, the number of entry level positions you are able to apply for increases massively. 

Job Satisfaction and Stability


Unfortunately, we spend most of our lives working, so it goes without saying that our overall happiness can rest quite heavily on our job satisfaction. Fortunately, it is possible to enjoy your job and studies have shown that those with college degrees have a higher level of job satisfaction than those without. There are several possible reasons why this may be the case. Those with college degrees have jobs that interest them and additionally, they may earn higher salaries and have more opportunities for advancement. 

Learn!


One of the most important reasons for doing an undergraduate degree (and probably the most easily forgotten) is to learn! It is a privilege to learn from passionate and knowledgeable people, not just lecturers but other students. You will meet people that will inspire you and give you a greater understanding, not only of your chosen subject but of other people and the world around you.

Essentially, choosing to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree, (whether it may be at DIMENSIONS International College or a different institution) is an investment in your future. It will enable you to become a more rounded and worldly person with unbeatable communication and analytical skills. It will prepare you for a more demanding career and lead to a more rewarding life.

English Courses in Singapore

In recent times, there has been an increase in the number of foreigners like you and me, as well as many other fellow and prospective students of DIMENSIONS International College , who are looking to seek employment in Singapore. Being well-known for our multi-racial and cultural society, Singapore can be seen as one of the better choices in Asia when it comes to working abroad. With 4 main ethnic groups and 4 official languages, we embrace and promote diversity in our communities. However, to work in Singapore, it is particularly important for individuals to have a certain level of command in English . Why English ?  Living in a multi-racial society would mean that a standardised language is needed to break down the language barriers and to ensure that people are able to communicate effectively with one another. Imagine Singapore without a standardised language: a Chinese lady would not be able to effectively communicate to the Malay owner of a Malay food stall. Durin...
