About to Take Graduate Studies? Here Are 8 Reasons Why You Should Consider Transnational Education

Jul 8, 2024   •   Cristina Morales

So you’re thinking about taking graduate studies. Congratulations! That’s a massive step towards achieving your life goals. However, with so many options available, choosing the right path for graduate studies can be daunting.

One option you may not have considered yet is transnational education (TNE). TNE involves enrolling in a program that allows you to study in one country while earning a degree from a university in another country.

This approach allows students to gain an internationally recognized qualification without relocating for their entire course. Often, TNE programs include collaborative arrangements between universities, so students might receive dual certification or joint degrees from both institutions.

In recent years, more Filipino learners have been pursuing TNE, especially in the UK. This is primarily due to the Transnational Higher Education Act (RA 11448), which has created more opportunities for Filipinos to take advantage of TNE. And thanks to the partnership between the British Council and CHED, more TNE degrees from the UK are now available to Philippine students.

But why exactly should you consider TNE for your graduate studies? Here are 8 reasons that might convince you:

 

1. You’ll graduate with globally recognized degrees

TNE programs are degrees created through a partnership between two universities located in different countries. With UK-PH TNE Degrees, you graduate not with one, but two internationally recognized qualifications from your Philippines university and a prestigious UK partner institution. This means you’ll graduate with qualifications that are recognized and valued worldwide.

 

2. You’ll experience world-class education

Globally known as a bastion of academic excellence, the UK boasts world-renowned universities that consistently rank high in international league tables. These institutions adhere to rigorous standards and have a track record of producing highly skilled graduates. TNE lets you access the UK’s top-notch education.

 

3. TNE provides flexible learning options

TNE offers a wide range of options for students, including online and blended learning programs, making it easier for you to balance your studies with other commitments like work or family. This flexibility allows you to customize your learning experience and make it more conducive to your circumstances. Plus, you can pursue an international program without having to study full-time abroad, so you don’t need to pack your bags and leave your life in the Philippines.

 

4. You’ll gain international exposure

Whether or not you decide to go abroad to study abroad through TNE, you’ll still get the opportunity to gain international exposure through  interactions with students and professors from different countries. This exposure allows you to expand your global network, enhance your cross-cultural communication skills, and better understand diverse perspectives.

The opportunity to go to the UK for your studies is also a great chance to experience its rich culture, history, and traditions firsthand. The UK is a melting pot of global perspectives, so you’ll meet people from all over the world, which will broaden your horizons and enrich your learning experience. Plus, think of all the amazing sights you’ll see!

 

5. It’s a cost-effective way to study abroad

Studying abroad can be expensive, but TNE offers a more cost-effective option than traditional study abroad programs. With TNE, you’ll save on travel and living expenses, so you won’t have to break the bank to get a world-class education.

6. It lets you build expertise in niche fields

TNE programs in the UK are highly specialized, offering niche areas of study you might not find locally, such as Tropical Biological Oceanography and Robotics Engineering. You’ll also have the opportunity to learn from top experts in your field, whether they are based in the UK or the Philippines. This allows you to gain expertise in your field of interest and stand out among other graduates in the job market, which brings us to our next point…

 

7. It’s a great way to advance your career

A TNE degree doesn’t just look good on your resume—it can significantly boost your career prospects. Aside from gaining expertise in niche fields, TNE also expands your professional network in ways traditional graduate degrees might not. With connections from both your local university and the UK partner institution, you’ll have a vast network of professionals to leverage for mentorship, collaboration, and job placements.

 

8. It’ll enhance your personal development

By itself, the act of pursuing higher education is already an excellent opportunity for personal growth and development. However, putting yourself on the global stage through TNE takes it to a whole new level. By challenging you to step out of your comfort zone,  TNE can help you become more confident, resourceful, and culturally aware. And when you graduate, you’ll have a degree that showcases not just academic achievements, but also your adaptability and resilience. That’s something you can be proud of for the rest of your life.

 

If you’re ready to take your education to the next level and explore new horizons, you can learn more about transnational education in the UK by visiting the British Council website.
