Australia on your mind?Now that tuition fees are on the agenda again in Ireland lots of people are beginning to think further afield for their tertiary education - and this time they are thinking far beyond Europe. In fact, almost 500 Irish students are now enrolled in colleges and universities in Australia - and that number is growing rapidly. Australia is now home to almost 500,000 international students - this is the highest proportion of international students relative to population in the world. With these kinds of numbers international education is certainly big business down under and universities and colleges put a lot of effort into ensuring students have a positive academic and social experience - whether they are there for a semester or for an entire undergraduate or postgraduate degree. Academic ExcellenceIt is not only the well-known Australian lifestyle and climate that attract so many students but the country’s well-earned reputation for academic excellence and the overall quality of student services. The opportunity to mix in a truly international environment and obtain a qualification that will stand out from the pack is most often cited by international students in Australia as a key reason for studying down under.Interviews
And now one Australian university is holding interviews in Dublin at the end of October. The University of the Sunshine Coast is located in one of the fastest growing regions in Australia just an hour’s drive north of the Queensland capital, Brisbane. Established a little more than a decade ago the University has built a solid reputation domestically and internationally. USC has the highest proportion of academic staff with postgraduate qualifications of any university in Queensland - and the fifth highest in Australia.
