Last October 19 to 21, 2021 – grade 10 students of Far Eastern Private School were taken to Expo Centre Sharjah for the 17th edition of the International Education Show.
The exposition welcomes students from various schools in the UAE to look for college courses and programs that they would like to pursue in their higher education. The students were allowed to roam around in groups in search of different college courses that captivated their interest.
Additionally, they were allowed to interact from different colleges and universities of respective booths. The booths were divided into categories based on the courses available: Artificial Intelligence, Robotics, Engineering, and Fashion Designing.
The mentors of each booth showcased their designated courses to the students. They included activities such as open discussions, gave brief introductions on what they do as professionals and explained how the university and course they represent helped them as individuals.
One of the main goals of the education show is to provide students with the ideal educational platform that will allow them to see the potential work they will do in the future – especially those who are undecided on what career path to take.
This education show has given them the opportunity to view different kinds of courses.
The International Education Show participants finished the day with their minds full of inspirations and newly acquired knowledge. This helped broaden their minds and encouraged the students to choose the right course for them one step at a time.
