After you graduated from university you'll go to find a job or continue study ? Nowadays there many people select to continue study and they think if they get higher degree they'll get better job. And some people select to work after college they want more experience to succeed . How do you think?

I think, that education is a never ending thing, and even if you don't get a better job, you will improve your life, and your work abilities you could get paid more, or make extra money on the side.
Sincerely and With Appreciation.

Thanks ! The finally goal that we study for is to get work abilities .And i agree with your opinion .The education is never ending. We must gain the ability of studying by ourselves because we finally will leave school. Only we have the studying ability then we can adapt to planet better.

This has always been an ongoing discussion. After we finish one degree, we will have to decide whether we want to continue with our education or should we stop and start working?
There is no right or wrong answer to these question. I believe both are routes for us to choose. They are different routes, with different nature. If we are one that prefers studying, likes studying, then perhaps it will be a good idea to continue studying. Of course, we need to money to study too.
Anyway, life is a learning process. We can never stop learning. If i have the choice, I would much rather continue studying than be in the working world

I was once thought of continue to pursue Master degree after I've graduated from college, but because I didn't want to continue spending my parents' money, hence I decided to start working and earn money. I also think that after gaining some experience then only we go back to study, we'll know better what we really want to learn and we'll be better when studying.
In my country, having a higher degree may not mean you'll get a better job. As some companies will hire graduates with bachelor degree, and they are not willing to pay more for higher degree.

Yeah. Now i'm at the point to choose to get a Master degree or find a job after college. If i want a Master degree then i must prepare for it soon because i must succeed in test .In my college the people who will continue study after graduated almost prepare for it one year before they leave college. But i'll not to .For me i 'll find a job and get some money and experience at first. If there are necessary to get a Master degree after i worked some years ,then i'll go back to study.
I agree with you that a higher degree may not mean a better job.

I do not really like school so my goal is to graduate from college and hopefully find a career. I will try to work and gain experience however if I am not making enough or do not like the career I am pursing then I will go back to school. No one is ever too old to go back to school in this society :)

If there's an opportunity for me, I would rather choose to study again and take my masteral degree... It will be part of my achievements if it will happen...Financial difficulties and time are great barriers... I hope I could get my masteral degree soon..

First to those people who think that getting higher degree is just for getting good job they are wrong getting big degree is just to increase the value of your self some great guy has said that don't run behind success run behind perfection success will come running behind you and now we come to the topic i think that people should keep studying until they are satisfied with what they have achieved...

It is advantageous to pursue a higher degree after finishing college. However, I think that it would be better to get employed first, and after working a year or two, or more, pursue your higher education. You would appreciate and understand post graduate studies more if you have "seen" what "actual work" is. There are a lots of things in the "real world" that are not taught at university. These things are learned through experience at work.
