AIC Campus Global Engineering Transfer (GET) Program 200 Universities 25 Majors in USA, Canada, France, Australia and Europe
Some of the highest paying careers in the world are found in engineering. Engineering is widely considered as one of the most lucrative and in demand career choices, with multiple engineering disciplines and job types, as well as salaries that can exceed US $100k per year once the engineer has some experience behind them.
Engineers tend to earn in excess of the national average salary and this is expected by some reputable organizations to continue in the future.(According Bureau of Labor Statistic USA) In fact, Engineering degrees make up 10 of the top 17 highest paid degrees globally.
With engineering being a part of nearly all aspects of today’s modern world, innovative thinkers who can solve problems will always be in demand, regardless of the specific discipline they studied in school. Moreover, it is not uncommon for an engineer to work in multiple disciplines over the course of their professional career. With that in mind, don’t feel like you must choose a discipline based solely on the demand in that area right now. The fact that a particular discipline is in high demand right now does not guarantee that it will still be in high demand in 4-5 years when you are searching for your first job.
The demand in particular areas of engineering (and thus salary levels) tends to have a cyclical trend; disciplines that are in high demand during one decade tend to become less attractive in the following years before “coming back” into demand. The areas of engineering that are in most demand will also vary from country to country. In general, demand considerations should probably be secondary in your choice of field. Instead, give preference to what you are interested in and the kind of work you want to do. If you perform well in any of the engineering fields, you will almost certainly find yourself in high demand regardless of the discipline you choose initially

How does one enter into the legal profession in Sri Lanka through the UoL LL.B degree?
In a period of 3 years, prospective law students should complete their LL.B degree. If the student is already a degree holder from any recognized university by the UoL (can be of any discipline), it would take the student a minimum of 2 years to complete the LL.B degree. After obtaining the degree, the student can gain entry to Law College to obtain his/her professional qualification. This route is considered to be more fruitful as the student will be able to procure a LL.B degree and can gain entrance directly to the Sri Lanka Law College, without facing the extremely competitive Law college entrance examination. An LL.B (Lon.) degree holder will only take an year to complete the Law College examinations, rather than the stipulated three years. Following the completion of the student’s professional qualification obtained through Law College, the student will be able to take oaths as an Attorney-at-Law.
What are the benefits of choosing the University of London LL.B rather than any other LLB from the UK?
The University of London was established in 1858, and has stood through the ages as one of the top rated and prestigious universities in the world and in the UK. The standard of the UoL LL.B is assured by the Quality Assurance Agency of the UK. The UoL LL.B is regarded as an ‘international gold standard’ in legal education. It is a proven fact that UoL law graduates are of high calibre and a have a greater edge over many other UK law graduates in regards to career opportunities within the legal profession both in Sri Lanka and aboard.
Can a student do the University of London LL.B without going to England?
Yes, it is indeed possible to do the entire course by following lectures atCfPS law School. The British Council conducts the examinations on behalf of the UoL. The papers are, thereafter sent to London to be marked by UoL examiners. The same examiners mark the examinations of the students of the Colleges of the UoL as well. It is important to note that the LL.B degree is awarded by the UoL and not by the CfPS Law School.
