Destination: Australia, Mission: Study.
The quest for the best study abroad destination is something that might never end. Moving across the world to study is a big decision. However, how do you choose where to go and why is Australia a great choice?
To begin, according to the QS ranking for 2018, Australia, the sixth largest country in the world, has achieved the distinction of being home to 7 of the top 100 best universities in the world. Along with top-class education, the country also offers stable work opportunities and a multitude of diverse courses for those interested.
These are some of the reasons to make Australia your preferred study abroad destination:
1. Excellence
Australia is considered to be the best when it comes to vocational and technical education and it is now certified among the best and most formative in the world. It enjoys an international reputation for excellence in all areas of education and training. Australian universities are notable for excellence in many disciplines because they deliver practical and career-orientated training so that graduates can be confident that they have the skills demanded by employers. It has played an integral role in Australia’s economic performance by remarkably boosting the skill of workers and contributing to improved productivity.
2. Innovation
Australia is notable for adopting new technologies at a faster rate than many other countries and enters the new millennium with one of the highest rates of internet access in the world. Facilities for teaching, training and research are world-class in terms of state-of-the-art laboratories and classrooms, outstanding libraries and modern technology.
3. World Class Academic Recognition.
For a country of just 23 million people, Australia has a firmly established history of being home to some of the best research institutions on earth. Academic programs in science like chemistry, geology, biology, mathematics and engineering, and environmental biologists seeking biodiversity in their studies can be found in many of Australia’s 43 major universities.
4. Multicultural society.
The perks of studying abroad comes with getting familiar with an entirely different culture. Primarily, it can be intimidating, but it’s sure to result in a worthwhile experience. Australia is a multicultural, friendly and harmonious society. It is home to students from all over the world. They appreciate the wealth of cultural diversity and social poise that international students bring to the campuses and communities, and great care is taken in looking after international students and also helping them to adjust to the Australian way of life.
5. Cost of living.
The standard of living in Australia is among the highest in the world. On the other hand, it’s below that of the United Kingdom and the United States of America. International students are able to work part time while they study, allowing them to offset their living costs. There is also the possibility of scholarships, which can help to lower the cost of studying in Australia for international students.
6. Safety.
Your safety is an important component of any decision you make, and this is another area where Australia absolutely excels. The guardian reports that Australia has a low crime rate and strict gun control laws providing a safe environment for students. This allows students feel safe enough to study, and explore the beautiful island and its culture.
