Excellence Beyond Borders aims to provide the fastest way to learn about where to go for higher education and how to decide on a suitable degree in the field of finance, with regards to different career prospects. Numerous students of North South University aspire to attain postgraduate degrees in prestigious universities abroad. However, deciding on where to go and finding the most appropriate universities for our individual needs can be stressful and time consuming - which is why NSU Finance Club will be compressing all that hard work into one convention! The seminar will consist of an introductory session on GRE and GMAT, followed by five sessions on higher study opportunities in different parts of the world. Each session will cover opportunities available for higher studies in finance for particular countries/continents including USA, Canada, Australia, UK and other European and Asian countries. The seminar aims to convey about the various fields in finance available for taking a post-graduation degree to help the students choose a finance field wisely so that it can benefit their career in finance. It will also provide a clear concept to the attendees regarding which post-graduation degree, MBA or other Masters Programs, would be suitable for a particular finance field and cover the scholarship opportunities of postgrad education provided by reputed universities.
