Complemented by www.studymalaysia.com/career-guide, this easy-to-use and first-of-its-kind guidebook is a useful assessment tool for school counsellors, students and parents—it helps students explore and identify a suitable COURSE choice for their university education; likewise it helps school counselling teachers and parents to guide students in their choice of career and course.

Who will benefit from this activity-based guidebook?

1. A useful tool for students:

Designed for Form 4, 5 and 6 students and international school students preparing for IGCSE or A-Levels, this guidebook summarises all possible study disciplines available and groups them into 27 fields of study. Students will be introduced to each field of study, its sub-fields or majors, possible occupations in each field, as well as a list of courses offered under each field of study by the corresponding education providers.

There’s more—a self-directed activity (career assessment) in the guidebook helps students to explore, evaluate and shortlist the fields of study in which they are interested and subsequently, search for a right higher education course which matches their career interest.

It is hoped that users will be guided in:

1. finding out what courses are offered in each field of study that matches their dream career or career interest; and
2. identifying an education provider of a particular course of study that corresponds to their career interest.
