Emigrating to ???

_Underscore_

Hello,

I'm currently in my final semester of a Law degree but I really cannot envision myself working with law in the future. I'm not sure if that's because I'm suffering from burnout, but the thought of becoming a solicitor makes me nauseous.

Therefore, I want to do a Master's and then emigrate ASAP, however, my issue is, I'm unsure of which course to choose because I have no idea which course would make me more employable in an international context. I am also incredibly open to working in any country [outside of Ireland and the UK] in any career.

At the moment, I'm trying to decide between the MSc in Data Analytics at QUB, the MSc Computer Science (Conversion) at UCD, or if I should do something like the MSc Management Information and Managerial Accounting Systems at UCC.

I have no idea if any of the aforementioned courses would be useful in an international context, and I am open to suggestions of other courses that would enhance my employment prospects.

If it is worth mentioning, I have C1 German, but if I was working in a German-speaking country, I would rather pursue a career where the majority of my work was through English because I only enjoy German recreationally.

Thank you so much in advance.

I would not pick any course based on employability, if you are horrified at the thought of working in law I would definitely make sure the masters is something you enjoy and want to work in, or you could end up in the same situation with the masters subject - it may be better to get a job (does not have to be law) and work for a few years if you are not sure what you want to do the masters in? And it may become more clear after working for a while

I did that course in UCC a few years back, I d happily chat to you about it if you like, any questions just shout
In my class we had law graduates who have gone on to do very well in their careers, law being a great base degree,
A lot of my classmates have gone onto positions at home and abroad,
a few in london and america, no bother getting work,

If you are very interested in the software design in I would recommend checking the H.Dips in software design courses on Springboard - They are basically free (I think like a 200 euro fee) , I did one in Galway (but I think its no longer on Springboard) and everyone is employed, in software development and technical consulting roles and other IT roles mostly

With your law background you could look at privacy field, becoming huge now for obvious reasons, theres a few courses like CIPP/E, CIPM etc
