Manchester Postgraduate Study Fair goes down a Treat with FindaMasters.com
Released on: December 05, 2011, 11:06 am There was a 25% increase in the number of students flooding through the doors of Manchester Central for the annual Manchester Postgraduate Study Fair sponsored by FindAMasters.com. Over 2200 students had the chance to talk one to one to representatives of over 90 universities from the UK and overseas. As well as individual universities there were organisations representing the university systems of Australia, Germany, New Zealand, Switzerland and the USA. Manchester Careers Service laid on a busy and informative talks programme. Students gathered during the day to hear professionals talking on postgraduate life, studying overseas, teacher training masters and financing postgraduate study. The highlights included a talk on Studying for a PhD and very popular talks on Study in the USA (from the Fullbright Commission), and Australia & New Zealand (from Study Options). A designated Careers Zone was set-up in the hall, where a dozen careers advisors were kept busy all day talking with students about their future study and career choices. The atmosphere was vibrant and buzzing with all the resources provided for students to learn more about their up-and-coming study years. There was also a lighter element to the day provided by FindAMasters.com, who delivered fresh popcorn on demand, chocolates and a competition to keep the exhibitors entertained. The FindAMasters stand was chock-a-block all day with students asking for advice, running a quick search through their PhD & Masters courses databases and signing up to their weekly postgraduate study newsletters. The newsletters provide updates on relevant masters degree and postgraduate courses available from around the globe. FindAMasters.com is free to students and has an advanced search facility to help students filter through 17500 postgraduate courses from around the globe including postgraduate diplomas. The next FindAMasters Postgraduate Study Fair will be held in the University of London’s Senate House on the 25th January 2012 - for information about this and other up-and-coming events visit: FindAMasters.com and register for our newsletter to be in the running to win a Kindle.
