Is Australia a good destination for higher education?
Author: DR.N.V. Srinivasa Rao Post Date: 24 May 2023 These days Australia is attaining a lot of importance as a venue for higher education for many international students. Australia is a popular place as the country is having an excellent infrastructure. The standard of living is good and costs less than that of the US and the UK. The medical and healthcare facilities are available at an affordable cost. The housing is not very costly and transportation facilities are world-class. My sister's son was in Australia for more than 8 years and he always mentions that life is peaceful there.
I read somewhere that QS Best Student Cities Rankings 2023 has given 7 cities in this continent a ranking of less than a hundred. Those cities are Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide, Perth, Canberra, and Gold Coast. These cities are having some good world-class educational institutions. I give below some of such institutes in this country.
1. Charles Sturt University 2. Deakin University 3. Griffith University 4. LCI Melbourne 5. Le Cordon Bleu 6. Queensland International Business Academy 7. Southern Cross University 8. University of South Australia 9. Western Sydney University
The following are the important points, I believe, make Australia a good destination for students for higher studies.
1. The country is ranked second in the world for better education.
2. The country is affordable when compared to other destinations like the US and the UK.
3. The syllabus in the universities gives more importance to the application part also and the syllabus will be getting updated based on the latest developments in that subject.
4. Australian method of assessment of the student is something different. More emphasis will be given to practical skills. They use projects, reasoning and value-based questions, assignments, essays, seminars etc, to assess the student.
5. There are around 40 universities, I understand which offer courses in diverse fields and various academic courses for the students.
6. There are chances for internships as well as part-time employment chances will studying.
7. This continent is having advanced facilities for conducting research and good infrastructure.
I suggest students study the details about the university they select and contact a reliable study abroad consultant and get the details about that University. If possible, talk to the concerned authorities of that university and enquire about the facts. If any known student from our country is studying there contact him and collect the information. After studying all the facts, take a decision and then apply it.

Author: Umar Post Date: 23 May 2023 Australia is a good place for higher education. Western Sydney University in NSW, Federation University in Victoria and other universities offer admission to international students. However, as for as Indian students are concerned, Australian universities are banning Indian students due to visa fraud and the highest attrition risk coming to the fore.
Notices issued by Western Sydney University in NSW and Federation University have banned Indian students, especially students from north Indian states like Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, Haryana, Uttarakhand and Uttar Pradesh. Due to the urgency of the matter, the universities have paused the recruitment of students due to the highest attrition risk from these regions with immediate effect.
Western Sydney University spokesperson said in a statement, the decision was not taken lightly but was necessary to protect the integrity of the education system of the institution. Since PM Modi is on a visit to Australia, let's hope something fruitful for the Indian students comes out.
It is now necessary for Indian students to verify properly before applying for admission to Australian Universities and I hope the ban won't be too long for these Indian states.
