If you have enjoyed working on a project of your own or have a natural thirst for knowledge about a particular topic, chances are that you will enjoy the opportunity to focus on a problem of cutting-edge research. Working exclusively on a specific topic
for a few years will result in you becoming an expert in your field (and possibly, even more than your supervisor!), thus becoming more marketable to employers. You will learn how to develop important transferable skills such as solving problems, finding
relevant information, learning how to communicate and managing your time effectively. The rich and meaningful learning experiences provided would enable you to walk into a workplace as a professional with added confidence.
