Thailand has long had a reputation for hosting some great degree courses, and with exciting programs that incorporate one year of study at a top UK university, many young people are walking away with a world class degree that is in affiliation with a top rated British university, and that gets them ahead in the race for a career start.
Three Year Bachelor Programs
Some Thai Colleges offer three-year Bachelor programs in many areas of business & tourism, and part of the program involves one year of study at a prestigious UK university. This benefits you in many ways; English is the international language, and living in the UK for one year will really develop your speaking and listening skills, something that ESL learners do not have. Living in the UK means staying with an English family and making foreign friends on the course, as well as immersing yourself in a dynamic and hands-on study program that features project work, which will teach you valuable skills that only come from working within a team to achieve a single goal. Any student who would like to study international courses in Thailand (called เรียน อินเตอร์ ใน ไทย) can choose from a selection of respected Thai colleges that have an alliance with UK institutions.
Credibility
When you are sending your CV out to prospective employers, you already have a head start on the competition, as your degree is with a prestigious British university, and this will ensure that you always make the interview list, and would probably earn you an asterisk with the note, “Top Qualifications”. For any Thai employer, studying in the UK is a big plus, and this will always ensure you make the final interview selection, and when you do interview, you will project yourself in a self-confident way, thanks to the challenging year at the UK university.
Personal Development
As a person, the one-year UK study section would develop language and critical thinking skills, putting you in a multi-cultural environment, and this will prove invaluable in your early career. The way the students learn in a British university differs from those in Asia, and the students are taught how to analyse, how to maximise team benefits when working on a project, and critical thinking skills will be sharp.
Fields of Study
Business & Tourism covers a lot of different fields, such as:
- Digital marketing
- Business entrepreneurship
- General business
- Event management
- Human resource management
- Business management
Once you find a course that has what you are looking for, enrol and prepare for a challenging 3-year program that will see you experience like in the UK for 12 months, which is a critical part of the program. Graduating from a UK university is a big advantage that will help you in your quest for the perfect career.
The focus of the programs is very much hands-on, and you will be required to demonstrate your skill sets, and with the expertise of western professors, you will be guided through the exciting program. Then, all your hard work will result in a degree that raises a few eyebrows when searching for career opportunities.
