Murdoch University

Even with a Diploma from Temasek Polytechnic, I chose not to rest on my laurels. I believe that furthering my studies would provide new knowledge in different fields and as such, decided to upgrade myself with a Degree.

I eventually chose Murdoch University as it was recommended by my colleagues. As their Degrees were recognised by my organisation, the Degree would grant me an advantage and opportunities for advancements in my workplace.

I really like the University’s teaching methods, especially the smaller classes which allowed a more focused education with the lecturers, allowing them to familiarise themselves and communicate better with the students.

Murdoch’s flexible study allows me to attend classes after work. Overall, I am satisfied with my choice as the Degree programme has helped me build confidence in developing and presenting my ideas, and I definitely recommend enrolling with Murdoch University to upgrade yourself.

Being a go-getter in life, I was determined to stay relevant and improve my skills and career prospects by pursuing my passion in Human Resource Management and Criminology. However, these ambitions would often be postponed to focus on other life commitments, and there was no institution that provided my preferred Degree.

Fortunately, I discovered the variety of programmes offered by Murdoch University, which included the Human Resource Management and Criminology Double Major Degree programme. It was the perfect opportunity to study what I was interested in and distinguish myself competitively with double specialisms.

With the flexible study plan from Murdoch University, I could work full-time and develop my career simultaneously. The experienced lecturers took a pragmatic approach to teaching with real-life examples, which enriched my understanding of the subjects and streamlined my learning.

Considering these advantages, I highly recommend Murdoch University as a renowned institution that provides quality education, offering useful skills that can lead to lucrative employment opportunities.

Fresh out of Ngee Ann Poly, I realised that a Degree was necessary in Singapore, and decided to progress my education to improve my employment and salary prospects. To ensure my investment would pay off, I chose to study with Murdoch University – a well-known and accredited institution.

The Degree programme has been instrumental to my current role as a producer/writer of radio ads. I have acquired essential skills, imparted to me by qualified lecturers with industry experience who shared their knowledgeable insights and work experiences with us, to give us an in-depth view of the topic.

It also helps that Murdoch University at Kaplan was conveniently located in central Singapore, and that classes were available after working hours so that I could attend while working full-time. Overall, my learning journey has been an efficient and productive one, and I recommend Murdoch University to others.

After completing my first part-time Degree in International Business with Murdoch
University at Kaplan, I decided to fulfil my childhood dream by pursuing another Degree in Psychology.

Working in a multi-national company was a key opportunity for me to apply my knowledge of global economics, geographical and cultural nuances. In a nutshell, my course has enabled me to confidently manage business relations across 12 different countries within the Asia region.

I graduated from Nanyang Polytechnic with a Diploma in Business Management. While my peers went overseas or to other institutions, I decided to search for something locally that would fit my needs.

I chose to take up a Double Major in Psychology and Management because the Degree programme allows me to study people-related topics. Equipped with this field of knowledge, I could then influence the lives of youths and improve on my interactions with them.

I have chosen to study with Murdoch University due to its global reputation. As an educator, I believe I can have positive impact on children and parents by applying the knowledge and skills gained from this Degree programme.

What I appreciate most is the nurturing learning environment, where lecturers constantly encourage us to ask questions. In addition, the small class size opens up abundant opportunities for everyone to participate and grow together. As Psychology focuses on building my understanding of human dynamics in the workplace, I believe that the skills gained will go far in helping me easily connect with fellow educators in Singapore.

Spurred by my interest in connecting with people from all backgrounds, I wanted to take a step further to gain insight into the management of workplace relationships. Attracted by Murdoch University’s international reputation and the flexibility to plan my own study schedule, I knew that pursuing my passion for Human Resources would boost my credentials and gear myself up for bright career prospects.

Apart from widening my thinking framework and diversifying my knowledge, my Double Major Degree journey was sweetened by approachable lecturers like Mr Frankie Yee and Mr Dinesh Dhaliwal who were always generous with sharing their rich industry experiences. I am confident that my Double Major Degree has not only set the building blocks for an exciting career but also shaped me into a well-rounded individual.

Desiring the best of both worlds, I decided on Murdoch University’s Human Resource Management (HRM) course as it offered a good balance between working full-time and studying.

In my current job, I am glad that I can tap on my in-depth knowledge of HRM processes ranging from recruitment, selection, compensation, training and organisation development to assist in ensuring that new hires assimilate well into the NUS team. I strongly believe my Degree has helped me hone key people management skills, and will land me promotional opportunities in the near future.
