bluerunner Posted June 18, 2015 Report Share Posted June 18, 2015 boss' understanding, juggling of family, work, social life, etc, school performance stress, peer pressure, work team morale, and many more...That's all expected from taking up a part-time course with a full-time job.

radialhead Posted July 11, 2015 Report Share Posted July 11, 2015 (edited) We should organize a gathering sometime. If BW has the 90s guys, orgy hotel gang bang groupies, men who cook and DOTA boys forming their own cliques, we should have our mental intercourse coffee (better yet, beer or cider) meetups too!

ash12 Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 I am taking part time Master by research, and bleh.... Miserable life now... feels like full-time PhD by research... (sorry to those PhD)....Haha. You've got to have an interest in research if you wanna pursue a PhD. Its not that bad. But then again, i am in my 1st year as a PhD student. So the worse is yet to come. Plus, i am under the IPP scheme so i am also exposed to areas outside my research field as well. Although its an exhaustive process, i love the flexibility of managing your own time rather than being confined to a mundane 8-5 job.

After that your PI starts to demand more and more and more till endless... haha... It is true that research does not have a fixed 8-5 job, but it can be more than that... haha...

Found any? Am keen to know more about this actually. Gonna commence my Masters later this year at RSIS. Am constantly looking out for Criminology related higher degrees. Guess the only route now would be a PHD under NUS Social Sciences faculty, Sociology Dept. Know a few lecturers who would gladly accept students pursuing Criminology.

soapyguy Posted April 4, 2016 Report Share Posted April 4, 2016 how's every1 doing? 2 more weeks to end of lectures and start of exam period. Time really flies, to think in Jan I was worried of balancing between my work and study. Any1 can recommend me any level 5 introductory cross faculty module part time with not much projects/assessment to do please? I took 2 modules this semester which I find both projects are quite intensive. hopefully can find an easier 3rd module so that next sem I can manage 3 modules to graduate earlier.

Some find the middle part is worst. Whatever is your reason, bear in mind that you need to bite the bullet and press on. Life is gonna get better there after. Singapore is a "paper oriented" society. With so many degree holders around, having something extra will do you no harm. However, we must not forget that the Masters or PhD can only give you a better starting point. How you run your race is still up to you. Just my two cents. my tough part is at the end... stress now.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
