Taking a pick of degrees>

By Hari Sundar G.

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, MAY 7. An MBA from a foreign university through correspondence, a post-graduate degree or diploma in advanced computer courses, or a chance to earn a degree from a foreign university -- take your pick of advice and brochures.

An international educational fair, "Careers and Campuses" being organised at the YMCA Hall here, may be just what career-hunters may be looking for.

For those looking to obtain a degree, diploma or doctorate from the University of Leicester, U.K., details of facilities for study are provided by a consultation agency.

If it is an MBA from Charles Sturt University, Australia, or the London School of Commerce, that you are looking for, the Madras School of Management Science, an associate centre, offers to provide Chennai-based training.

The degrees, being directly awarded by the universities, are sure to help a lot to gain placements in reputed organisations, says the consultant in charge of the Madras School of Management Studies.

You might, alternatively, do your post-graduation in Media Communication, Management, Foreign Trade or Information Technology at a pristine surrounding on the slopes of the Kodaikanal hills. The Kodaikanal Christian College has put up a stall.

A stall which hands out information on animation and 3D -- a hit among students at present is attracting many visitors. Diploma courses in 2D and 3D animation software for creating sculptures and animation are being offered by the Vismayam School of Animation and Special Effects.

Details of various educational loans being offered by some banks and private financiers are also being made available.

The show, organised by International Shows and Events, is the second of its kind in the State, the first having been held in Kochi last month. It was inaugurated by a hotel management expert from the U.K., Ms. Elizabeth Lee, and would conclude on May 9.
