Why Choose to Study Abroad?

Nowadays, more and more students are choosing to embark on the path of studying abroad. Studying abroad has its own benefits, and here are some of the examples. 

1. Top Quality Education

You can get globally recognised degrees offered by countries like Australia, New Zealand, the UK, the USA and Canada. A huge percentage of the world’s highest-ranking universities can be found in these countries, such as The University of Melbourne in Australia, The University of Auckland in New Zealand, the University of Bristol in the UK, Colorado State University in the USA and the University of Manitoba in Canada. With top-ranking universities, you can take advantage of their top-notch facilities for your studies and research. 

Besides that, you will have the chance to experience a different education system. An overseas education is more varied as they encourage independent and creative thinking. For example, a Bachelor's degree in the USA typically takes 4 years to complete. The first 2 years include commonly required subjects, such as math, history, literature and communications. This develops a broad-based knowledge across many subject areas – an advantage for competing in the global workplace. The final 2 years focus on your chosen ‘major’ subject.

2. Gaining Experience

You can live and study in a new environment and experience things from a different perspective. You’ll get to travel around and get to know the country by visiting landmarks, museums and natural wonders to expand your general knowledge. Also, you may have a chance to travel to places that are closer to the country that you have decided to study in. For example, you can travel to European countries when you are studying in the UK as travel costs will be cheaper.

Studying abroad also allows you to learn about another culture directly. Cultural differences stem from language, food, appearances and personal habits, but also in the ideas, beliefs and values that influence your lifestyle and view of the world. Studying abroad will allow you to greatly broaden your horizons, to truly experience multiculturalism, to practise the ability to think independently, to develop a calm attitude towards victory and failure, and to help you to understand human nature and society from a more comprehensive perspective.

3. Career Opportunities

With the current trend of businesses becoming more globalized, employers value graduates with international experience and education. Employers see someone with overseas study experience as a candidate that is self-motivated, highly independent, who likes to meet challenges and can solve a variety of problems and situations.  Studying abroad without your family by your side will allow you to learn how to deal with problems and issues independently.

Employers always look for a candidate that has the experience and ability to solve the issues between co-workers and clients. You will most likely have colleagues and clients come from various cultures and backgrounds, and the experience of studying and living abroad, and knowing how to integrate well with others will give you an advantage over other job seekers and getting along with them.
