Is it a good decision to pursue a second master's degree abroad after completing my MSc?
13 May 2026 · Answered by Swastika Ghosh · 1 min read
It can be a good decision if the second master’s helps you specialize further, switch domains, improve career opportunities, or gain international exposure. However, universities and visa officers may expect a clear justification for why another master’s is necessary. Your SOP should clearly explain the progression and how the second degree aligns with your career goals.
