Why do you want to resume your studies:
As I said, I worked for two years in the industry after completing of a bachelor’s degree to get expertise in software development. Some of our projects involved dealing with cyber systems. There, I came to know about the shortage and the importance of skilled cyber-security professionals. So I searched for universities related to this field and applied. I plan to learn these advanced topics and get a decent job in Pakistan after completing my studies in the UK.
Why this course:
Cyber-security professionals along with data scientists are very high demand for the last 4-5 years. In a country like Pakistan where the IT field is not fully matured yet, there is a significant shortage of skilled IT professionals, especially in cybersecurity. I had studied information security and computer networking course during my bachelor’s and also had a chance to work on cyber-security during my job so I thought of advancing my skills by doing an MSc in the relevant domain. The course and modules are designed according to industry standards and I believe studying this course will enhance my skills set according to industry requirements.

The course at this university is designed according to industry requirements so I’ll be happy to take this course at this university.
Why this course?

This MSc program offers those courses at an advanced level and also offers placement in the second year. This course will help me in expanding the range of skills required for IT professionals and will increase my worth.
Why Study in the UK?
Because the UK’s education system is among the top education systems in the world. The learning is not limited to the classroom only and courses also offer real-life projects to work on. Secondly, Due to English-speaking countries, it’s easy to interact with local people and learn about their culture. Also, degrees from the UK are highly valued not only in Pakistan but all over the world. So I strongly believe that I’ll get a very good job here in Pakistan after completing my MSc from the UK.

Which other intuitions did you consider?
I also got offer letters from Bedfordshire and the University of Law but Hertfordshire has a good reputation in computer sciences and it is also better in terms of ranking (601 rankings). Secondly, Hertfordshire offers advanced research in the second year which no other institution offers.
What is your future plan?
After this degree, I plan to come back and work in the Pakistani IT industry as a cyber-security professional. Because there is a huge shortage of skilled IT professionals here and I believe that I can get a very good job in Pakistan after my MSc from the UK.

Why can you not pursue further study in Pakistan?
I have studied in Pakistan for the last 16 years and did my BS here. After working in the industry, I realized that soft skills are equally important along with technical skills. So, I believe that I will develop good communication skills in English, time management skills, and also learn about different cultures by studying in the UK. Having a foreign degree will also strengthen my CV and increase my salary in Pakistan.
