I hv done MSC zoology want to purse higher education further but I am not sure what will be beneficial for me to get job later
Ans: Hello,

To begin with, thank you for getting in touch with us. Deciding to pursue further education in order to boost your career possibilities is of prime importance. Having already earned an MSC in Zoology and aspiring to pursue higher education, when selecting a course that will prove advantageous for your future job possibilities, keep the following factors in mind:

1. Discover Your Strengths and Hobbies: Within Zoology and its associated fields, think about your areas of interest. Think about the disciplines or elements of zoology you loved the most while pursuing your MSC program. Discovering your strengths can help select a specialty that best matches your abilities.

2. Get To Know The Market Demand and Trends: To learn about the most sought-after areas of zoology or associated fields, conduct extensive research on the labor market. Search for the newest trends viz., environmental science, bioinformatics, or conservation biology, that may offer promising future employment possibilities.

3. Research and Collaboration: Through social media platforms like LinkedIn, get in touch with experts in the zoology field, take part in conferences, and get involved in discussions to better understand the present job market and the highly sought-after abilities.

4. Certifications/Qualifications: Based on your future ambitions, earning certifications in ecological assessment, wildlife conservation, or science communication might prove advantageous. Your employability and abilities in specialized fields can be boosted through these credentials.

5. Think About Further Specialization: You might want to pursue a PhD degree in a certain branch of zoology that fascinates you. You can take up research roles in academics, government institutions, or private businesses as a result.

6. Education and Outreach: Think about earning a degree in science education or science communication, if you have a liking for education. This would enable you to teach or communicate scientific concepts to students or the public.

7. Biotechnology and Bioinformatics: If the intersection of biology and technology is something that interests you, pursuing a master's in biotechnology or bioinformatics could equip you with pertinent skills for industries viz., genetics, pharmaceuticals, and healthcare.

8. Environmental Management: A master's in environmental management or an associated field could be a wise decision if you're interested in environmental impact assessment, sustainability, or conservation.

9. Hiring at Government and Non-Profit Organizations: Experts with a zoology background are hired by a number of government organizations and charitable institutions for wildlife management, conservation, and environmental policy job roles.

10. Undertake Internships and Acquire Experience: Undertake internships, volunteer work, or part-time jobs to acquire practical experience. Gaining hands-on experience can balance your education and make you a suitable fit for potential employers.

Choose a career path that matches your hobbies, strengths, and long-term goals. Conduct extensive research, consult with experts in the field, and seek guidance from career counselors at your present or prospective academic institution. Make an educated choice that will help you succeed in your chosen career path.

Hello sir, I am 33years old and like to have a stable life with a good retirement corpus along with children education. I have 2 sons both are of 1 and 3years old respectively and my wife is a housewife. I am having FD of 16L, 10L in gold, bought a flat paying housing loan EMI of 25K, having term insurance for 1cr and health insurance for 4L. I am making investments in mutual funds SIP of 30k since last 1 year. Hdfc dividend yeild fund 1000 Icici bluechip fund 8000 Quant small cap fund 1000 Canara robecco small cap fund 1000 Uti nifty index fund 5000 Icici balanced advantage fund 5000 Jm flexicap fund 2000 Quant elss fund 5000 Parag pareekh flexicap fund 2000 Lumsum Investments Sbi healthcare fund 20K Quant infrastruture fund 10k Sbi magnum gilt fund 20k Plz advice....am i really doing good with these investments or shall i replan my investments....
Ans: Hello;

Having 12 funds(9 sip+3 lumpsum) in portfolio is not required.

You need to just 4 funds for your sip of 30 K(divided equally):
1. Flexicap fund
2. Large and midcap fund
3. Balanced advantage fund
4. Multi asset allocation fund

You may consider exiting the sectoral, thematic and debt fund owned by you and redeploy it in your regular funds.

This ensures equity(large cap oriented)is predominant asset class in your portfolio but it also has exposure to debt and gold for balance and risk mitigation.

Also keep a target to step up sip amount every year by 7-10% atleast.

This will go towards higher education provision for your kids. (~1.85 Cr in 15 years considering 7% annual top-up and 10% modest returns)

For your retirement planning you may consider NPS and start with a decent amount(~30 K pm) as regular investment since time is on your side(27 years to hit 60 age).[3.45 Cr in 27 years without any step up consideration. 8% returns assumed].

Consider buying home loan insurance and super top-up health cover.

Happy Investing;
