After your studies - career prospects

Earning a Master of Science in Asian Studies is an important step towards a career in international services, teaching, research or business, or doctoral studies.

The ability to obtain employment upon graduation depends both upon the your previous academic background and your specialization within the master programme.

The programme will prepare you for doctoral studies in a social science subject with a focus on Asia, or work as policy makers, trainers or practitioners in government agencies, private firms and NGOs.
