Case Sudy: Mechanical Engineering

---

He and his parents were confused about his future and visited us. Through our service called Career Strategy Report,

MIT is a top ranking, hard to get into, competitive and an expensive place to study. 

Through our Education Data Mining services we found out that studying at University of Washington instead of MIT for Avionics would provide him with a better platform to launch his career. Because University of Washington has a joint research centre with Boeing called BARC; which means that the student will have direct access to industry professors working with Boeing.

Although, MIT is a higher ranking university compared to University of Washington, but the access to the industry for avionics based careers was a lot higher at University of Washington. Furthermore, the parents  

saved 30% on education costs compared to studying at MIT. Creating a clear transition possibility for the the student into the industry post education and additionally saving money in return.

Mansi has had a strong affinity towards glamour and fashion industry since her school times but she transitioned from Physics, Chemistry, Maths at school to Computer Science Engineering without giving it a serious thought. She feels that she is  made for fashion more than computer sciences .

At Ed-Camp our team set her for the career strategy session and started building potential pathways for her . 

Taking a note of her knack for logic and coding along with her interest in fashion, our team advised her to look into studying Data Science with additional side course in  Fashion Merchandising.

Where she studied  Masters program in Applied Data Science along with an independent diploma in Fashion Merchandising.

And helps the company predict stock placement based on fashion trends and size sales in their stores globally through Data Analytics, her teams effort has enabled the firm to save billions on the stock wastage.  

But despite studying for his B.Com in a reputed college, he was not satisfied and wanted to discontinue with what he was doing. His parents got stressed once they learnt about his situation.

Ed-Camp team consequently worked on building Tarun’s profile, and through our services were able to break down the most suitable education and career options based on:

• strong future demand, 
• the figures of skilled labour shortages in the target country
• Tarun’s previous education progression
• Tarun’s Individual Complementary Interests
• Tarun’s Individual Strengths
• Industry and sector meta data
• Comparing average starting packages for target education based on university
• Predicting Return on Investment for funds to be spent on  foreign education for parents
• Comparing ease of work after education in the target country

but also ensured Tarun’s would have better Job Opportunities for him, once he completes his education.

Tarun decided to choose Culinary Arts as his line of his study and got an admission to Le Cordon Bleu, Sydney.

Le Cordon Bleu Australia (LCBA) is registered as a training organization by the Australian Skills Quality Authority (ASQA) and is accredited to deliver vocational certificates and advanced diploma courses. It leads the industry in its sector. 

A deficit of 350,000 individuals in the organised hospitality sector for that year.

Tarun got admission to Le Cordon Bleu, Sydney and, for his six months work placement he got an internship payout of AUD 32,000. Moreover, after graduation he scored a placement of AUD 64,000 under a celebrity chef.

Both Tarun and his parents are satisfied. Tarun is at a better place, happy and satisfied with what he does, which is the most important thing that one should feel when a person lands in a career.

But despite studying from a good university and pursuing a recognised course, she was not satisfied with the job options and payouts that she was being offered. She had never thought about this prior to starting her education, the reality of post study career prospects suddenly hit her hard. Her parents also could not ignore the stress that was building around her. 

They subsequently acted upon the situation and started to approach numerous education and career counselors in the city. This is where they learnt about Ed-Camp and our services, where they signed us up and discussed their issues to explore her options for abroad if any?

Where our teams started looking deeply into the aspects that would be in future demand for her industry and what could be done to make her profile more lucrative. 

Hers was a complex case as she had already completed her Masters degree previously, this left a low actionable space to maneuver for counselors. Nevertheless, our teams worked out numerous combinations of pathways for her.

Further, this was strategic as the career chosen could be connected to previous masters degree that she had completed, this resolved the issue of progression that many institutions abroad flag for applicants who intend to do a second master's degree. 

Moreover, our team learnt that developed countries have been consistently announcing new regulatory policies for businesses to be carried out in their countries since the pre-covid times to meet their global targets of carbon emissions. This has led to multi fold increase in the demand for Environment Consultants to access and present situational realities of government bodies and businesses to enable them to navigate the heavily regulated developed markets.
