WHY MULTI-DISCIPLINARY STUDIES?

When you think about it; in today's world, this type of course makes perfect sense. Consider:

  • Most people who do diplomas or degrees, end up working in industries other than the one they trained for? e.g. Research has shown only 10% of science graduates from a university, might end up working in science.
  • Most people change jobs every few years, and end up working in more than one industry over the course of their lifetime.
  • People are geographically mobile. They move to other countries to work; or do business on the international stage.
  • The world is changing very fast. We can't predict what jobs will be available in the future. It is difficult to prepare for opportunities that cannot be predicted. 

It makes more sense to study a wider range of subjects and be prepared to work in a wider variety of industries.  This course is, like no other, designed for just that purpose.
