Frequently asked questions
Q: What's the motivation behind this project "Our stories. Your opportunities"?
A: The leap from junior college/ pre-university education to university and subsequently working life was often a fearful one with the journey being filled with great uncertainties. This was exacerbated by insufficient knowledge on the courses offered by various universities and the possible career opportunities associated with the courses, as well as what the career entailed.
To plug the gap in today's situation, we established this social initiative to increase awareness of possible undergraduate courses and the career options/ opportunities associated with various undergraduate specializations.
Q: What do you hope to achieve?
A: The project aims to help juniors/ prospective undergrads make more informed decisions about their choice of undergraduate course by considering the career they would like in future.
Q: Where do your stories come from?
A: It's via crowdsourcing. The project collects inputs from working professionals, and publishes these personal anecdotes on their undergraduate education and their career paths on this site. We welcome you to contribute your stories; simply fill out this form!
