Is a university degree worth it? Charlotte Pickles and Kevin Rooney discuss 

Work Experience > Degree By a milestone.

I've got a degree in race grifting , it was the best 30 minutes i ever spent.

Unfortunately, companies say they require graduates with degrees, for jobs that in noway require them.

STEM, yes. Mickey Mouse, no.

Depends whether you'll ever get a job to clear the debts you've accrued in your life time 🤔

I'm a 2.1 University Criminology graduate. I did my second degree in Child Nursing, passed my final year exam's set up for a first...only to get to the point where I couldn't afford to commute to my nursing placement at the end of my final year. This was exacerbated by Middle Class students protesting they didn't want any debt, and wanted the bursaries back. This made it completely impossible for me to return, as I would have had to feed my family, and commute to placement with 700 pounds a month, down from 800. Thanks to the Middle Class, again ensuring Nursing can only be accessed by those privileged enough to have money from the bank of mum and dad. I'm working at Primark! Primark are happy though, not every retailer can say they have a second aider, rather than a first, working with their customers. 🤬

If there is a vaccine requirement might as well fill a will from the bad side effects. Other than that you still need productive skills to be job competitive.

..yes, for example a man from ghana can pick up a university degree for 2 chicken-bones in Botswana market! .....then all he has to do is jump on a plane to England ..pick up his visa ...and 'bingo; ...-instant career as a Doctor !.......-sorted ! 😁

Thank you, practical skills should be thought in school. For instance alot of employers requires you to be good with excel, why is Excel no taught to high standard as one of courses offered on curriculum? So its crazy, you leave school and remain unemployable!

If a course is titled '(anything) studies' you can pretty much guarantee being able to get a job at McDonalds on minimum wage.

No

ime, education is crucial… otoh, being taught what to think and not how to think is, apparently, what now passes as formal education in far too many universities

Nope.

Nope. Save your money.

Obviously yes. A vast improvement in life chances and an enhancement to quality of life for both the individual student and society as a whole.

Absolutely no chance in hell of a university degree being any good to themselves or the country.

By current trend you will need uni degree to be a litter picker....and masters to be employed as a cleaner. Micky Mouse degrees.. .but if people that DUMB to think university degree = guaranteed well paid job.... good luck 👍 still.... it's an advantage but NOT guarantee.
