In November of 2023, we take part in a delegation organized by the ANZ – India Chamber of Commerce in Mysuru and take the opportunity to meet with potential partners from international student agents, universities, schools, and of course industry.
Indian students coming to Australia to learn is a common and well-established trend in international education. Australia has become a popular destination for Indian students seeking higher education, vocational training, and English language courses. Here are some key points about this phenomenon:
So far in 2023 we have so far seen over 106,000 students from India entering Australia. WHY?
Education Quality: Australia is known for its high-quality education and research opportunities. Many of them consistently rank among the top in global education rankings. This attracts Indian students who want to pursue Vocational education and training, undergraduate, postgraduate, and doctoral programs.
Diverse Course Offerings: Australian institutions offer a wide range of courses across various fields, including business, engineering, healthcare, IT, and more. This diversity allows Indian students to choose programs that align with their career goals and interests.
Work Opportunities: Australia’s student visa regulations often permit students to work part-time during their studies and full-time during scheduled breaks. This allows Indian students to gain valuable work experience while covering their living expenses.
Multicultural Environment: Australia is known for its multicultural society, which provides Indian students with the opportunity to interact with people from various backgrounds and cultures. This exposure can enrich their educational experience and broaden their horizons.
Post-Study Work Opportunities: After completing their studies, Indian students may be eligible for post-study work visas, such as the Temporary Graduate visa (subclass 485). These visas allow them to work in Australia and gain practical experience related to their field of study.
Quality of Life: Australia is known for its high standard of living, safety, and healthcare. Indian students often find it a welcoming and comfortable place to live and study.
English Language Proficiency: For many Indian students, studying in Australia is an opportunity to improve their English language skills, which can be advantageous for their future careers.
Migration Pathway: Some Indian students see studying in Australia as a pathway to permanent residency or skilled migration. The Australian government has different immigration programs that may allow students to transition to permanent residency if they meet certain criteria.
Cultural Exchange: Indian students coming to Australia also contribute to cultural exchange, bringing their own perspectives, traditions, and experiences to the Australian society, enriching the cultural fabric of the country.
It is important for Indian students planning to study in Australia to research their chosen institution, program, and visa requirements thoroughly. Additionally, they should be aware of any changes in immigration policies, tuition fees, and scholarship opportunities to make informed decisions about their education in Australia.
