Some people believe that professionals, such as doctors and engineers, should be required to work in the country where they did their training. Others believe they should be free to work in another country if they wish. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion

Engineering and Medicine constitute tough specialities to study in school, accounting for a longer stay in school and a great amount of effort required to properly excel in the course. After a long stay in school, one deserves a good-paying job to make up for all the years of hardship. In

this

essay, I will explain why doctors and engineers should

work

in their

country

of training and any other

country

of choice

while

supporting the latter. Graduates in these fields should be mandated to

work

in their

country

to help in the

development

of the

country

. Their input will help in the growth and economy of the

country

.

For instance

, a civil engineer working in his

country

to help in the construction of good roads and a doctor making groundbreaking discoveries in the cure of a particular epidemic disease in the

country

.

This

development

will attract investors into the

country

, increasing the

country

’s GDP

while

also

earning a good salary for their

work

.

Thus

, the more

work

they do for the

country

, the greater the

country

’s

development

and their salaries too.

Whereas

, in as much as their input in the

country

helps with the

development

I believe they should be allowed to

work

in the

country

of their choosing to gain more knowledge and earn a better salary.

This

will enable them to adequately provide for their families.

For example

, the salary a doctor or an engineer earns in the US is three times higher than that which is paid in Nigeria. Through

this

means, the person is exposed

while

making a living.

Therefore

, more exposure leads to better pay outside the

country

of study. In conclusion, everyone wants to earn a reward for their labour. A doctor or an engineer should be allowed to practice in any

country

where better pay and exposure are possible.
