Why study in Australia?
It may be the mystique of snow skiing one day
and scuba diving the next that lures you to
Australia to study. Or perhaps, the excitement
of becoming a member of the Australian research
teams which are breaking new ground in
immunology, scientific instrumentation, plant
biotechnology and solar engineering. Whatever
the attraction, Australia promises to meet your
expectations as a world class education
destination.
Australia has an internationally recognised
education and training system which is the first
choice of many international students. Education
is one of Australia's major export markets and
Australian laws ensure that courses offered meet
high standards and that your fees are protected.
Australia enjoys a world-wide reputation of
being a safe multi-cultural country, free from
political unrest. English is the national
language and it is proud of our open and
friendly culture and it welcomes over 160,000
international students and 4.9 million tourists
each year.
The cost of studying in Australia (including
tuition fees and living expenses) is much less
than the US, Canada and UK. Students on student
visas are allowed to work up to 20 hours per
week during semester and full-time during
vacations to make studying in Australia even
more affordable and enriching. |
