Engineering and MBA programs are extremely popular choices for international students, but as the education landscape evolves, many students are exploring master’s programs beyond the traditional focus on STEM and MBA degrees, which have historically been popular choices for international study.

According to Prodigy Finance findings, here is the list of the top courses that were in high demand in 2024, beyond engineering and MBA, which attracted students’ interest globally.

Public Policy

One of the top programs in 2024 is the Master of Public Policy (MPP). This degree is for those who want to make a difference in government and community affairs. With an MPP students learn to analyse policies and their impact on different populations. As governments deal with complex social issues, the demand for policy analysts is on the rise.

Graduates of this program can find fulfilling careers as Policy Analysts, Government Affairs Directors or Nonprofit Managers. Some of the best universities for MPP programs are Harvard University, the University of Oxford and the University of California, Berkeley. Imagine working for governments, non-profits or international organisations, shaping policy decisions that impact millions of people.

Public Health

Public Health is another area that’s gaining traction. The COVID-19 pandemic has shown us the importance of public health education. Master’s programs in this field cover topics like epidemiology, health policy and community health initiatives. Graduates with a public health degree can find careers as Epidemiologists, Health Services Managers or Public Health Educators. Top institutions like Johns Hopkins University, Harvard University and the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine are leading the way in providing quality education in this field.

Law (LLM)

For those who want to specialise in specific areas of law an LLM program can give you the advanced legal training you need. Master of Laws (LLM) programs provide specialisation for legal professionals who want to progress in their career or shift focus to areas like international law, human rights or intellectual property. Top institutions like Stanford Law School, University College London (UCL) and Australian National University (ANU) offer LLM programs. An LLM gives students advanced legal training to prepare them for various roles in the legal field. Graduates become Legal Consultants, Corporate Lawyers or Human Rights Advocates.

Accounting

As financial regulations get more complex, skilled accountants and auditors are in high demand. Advanced degrees in accounting lead to a variety of financial careers that are both lucrative and necessary. Graduates can be CPAs, Financial Analysts or Auditors. Institutions like University of Mississippi, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, and New York University are well known for their accounting programs. These roles are key in multinational corporations, international law firms and organisations like the UN.

Biological Sciences

The field of Biological Sciences is growing fast, driven by genomics, biotechnology and environmental science. Global institutes like the University of Leeds, Queen’s University Belfast and the University of California Santa Cruz are leading the way, with programs that go into molecular biology, earth science and ecology. It gives you the skills to contribute to research and innovation. Many contribute to innovations in pharmaceuticals, renewable energy and ecological conservation, working with research institutions, biotech firms, pharmaceutical companies or biotechnology firms, pushing the boundaries of science.

These are just a few examples of the many in-demand master’s programs that can lead to fulfilling and rewarding careers. As education evolves to meet the needs of society, it’s time for students to look into these top courses that will bring personal fulfillment and professional success in 2024 and beyond.
