Ans: After getting his B.Des., your son can do many different jobs. A bachelor's degree in design allows him to work for design consulting firms, advertising agencies, product design firms, fashion houses, or even start his own design company.

His job goals and personal tastes will help him decide whether to get a PG degree or work experience. Getting a PG degree might help him if he wants to learn more about advanced ideas or become an expert in a certain design area. It allows him to learn more, improve what he does, and build a strong business network. In addition, an Online PG Degree route could give him more freedom by letting him keep working while he studies.

In contrast, getting work experience right after getting his B.Des. can also be helpful. It gives him real-life creative problems to solve, improves his problem-solving skills, and lets him build a collection of projects. In addition, working in the field gives you important experiences that you can only sometimes learn in a classroom, like how to deal with clients, design things, and handle projects.

In the end, tell your son to carefully consider all of his choices, considering his personal preferences and long-term job goals. He should always learn, change, and grow in the fast-paced field of design, whether he gets a PG degree first or gets work experience first.

Ans: Hello Venkata,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am happy to hear that your daughter is pursuing her Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) in India and is keen on pursuing her postgraduate studies in the USA. To answer your question first, I would like to tell you that although postgraduate studies in Dentistry can be pursued by BDS graduates in the USA, they will need to take into consideration certain requirements and things. The academic prerequisites put in place by the American Dental Association (ADA) as well as the Commission on Dental Accreditation (CODA) will need to be first fulfilled by them. This generally entails finishing a doctoral program in dentistry that is for a duration of 4 years, one that compares to a D.D.S. i.e. (Doctor of Dental Surgery) or D.M.D. i.e. (Doctor of Medicine in Dentistry or Doctor of Dental Medicine) degree in the USA.

Graduates of Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) may be required to complete an Advanced Standing Program in a dental school in the USA which is for a duration of 2 years, in order to pursue postgraduate studies. I would like to tell you that these programs are intended to fill in the gap between dentistry education provided in other countries and one that if offered in the USA. Also remember that you daughter will be required to pass the IELTS or TOEFL English proficiency tests to demonstrate her English language competency, as well as the National Board Dental Examination (NBDE). In addition, she will also need to obtain robust endorsement letters from professors or employers and showcase pertinent work experience. As the entrance prerequisites for dental schools in the USA might differ, and as there may be fierce competition for these programs, I would recommend that your daughter conducts an extensive study on certain dental schools. Lastly, I would like to say that with commitment and through satisfying the mandatory prerequisites, securing admission to a postgraduate dental program in the USA is definitely attainable.
