New Zealand A Perfect Place For Higher Studies
New Zealand is combination of a perfect country, metropolitan cities, serene towns and Educational Institutions. Most colleges there offering Higher Education are well known all over the world. It is the goal of the New Zealand Government to make all colleges there at par with International quality learning institutions.In this resource I will review New Zealand as a place for higher studies and as a country in general.
Education and status of New Zealand
'Development can be possible only through quality education' is the motto of New Zealand and the country has proved this. New Zealand has strong contributions in International Education. New Zealand has become a developed country primarily due to the contribution of the educated youth and quality learning centers there. The quality education there has led to employment opportunities to many students. Variety of courses
New Zealand offers a number of courses under both Arts and Engineering. These courses can be anything from Diplomas to Degrees. New Zealand is the number one country for courses like Bio-Technology, Forensic sciences, Film-making and Marine Engineering. Safe country and International Standards
New Zealand is a safe and cordial country. The population of this country welcomes everyone from across the globe and provides all kinds of assistance. With this attitude if one was to go to New Zealand, he would say that this is a fact there. There are hardly any educational centers in New Zealand which do not conform with International Standards. English is Important
The educational system of New Zealand is similar to the British system of education. Therefore if you plan to go to New Zealand for education, knowledge of English is a must. You may take the help of English coaching classes and watch English Films to pick up the language. Teachers always in touch with students
Teachers in New Zealand provide full attention to all the students without partiality. As the number of students in any classroom is less in New Zealand due to low population, the teachers are able to concentrate on imparting education to all the students. Expenditure involved
As far as the expenditure is concerned, getting education in New Zealand is costly but considering the International quality one gets there, this is not a big price to pay. If you plan to study in Auckland, the biggest city in New Zealand, the expenses there can be very high including the lodging, food, travel etc. However if you intend to stay in the hostel of the institution, the lodging expenses will be considerably lower.Special Trips
One special feature of New Zealand Universities is that they organize 'special trips' to make the students more well versed with the country and to enable them to imbibe more knowledge. This feature is not seen in the Universities of other countries. Scholarship and Visa requirements
In New Zealand a student can avail a number of scholarship offers that are available there. A New Zealand student visa is initially given for a period of 1 year but can be easily extended further in case of requirement. Permission is also given to students to do part time Jobs.
