Getting an education abroad has become popular among young people
Higher education is one of the basic 'capitals' of any person. It allows one to be competitive in the labor market. Today, many students from CIS countries go abroad to study. This provides an opportunity to obtain professional qualifications that may be recognized not only at home. Currently, over 570 thousand foreign students study in the USA, more than 300 thousand in the UK, and about 150 thousand in Australia. According to experts' forecasts, by 2020 the number of students studying outside their own country will be about 6 million. Thus, in the next 10-15 years, their number could triple.
In the countries of the former Soviet Union, the first schoolchildren and students began to go abroad in the early 1990s. Today, the number of our compatriots studying abroad is in the thousands. What attracts foreign universities so much? First of all, it provides an opportunity to obtain a diploma that will be valued in many countries (ideally, everywhere). And in many cases, you can use your studies as a prelude to immigration. For example, in Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Germany, they have a positive attitude towards the desire of foreign students who study specialties in demand on the national labor market to undergo internships after graduation, and then stay permanently.
If you are interested in such education, you can find more detailed information on the pages of Internet sites.
Another plus: studying with students from other countries leads to an understanding of the peculiarities of other people's thinking, ensuring better contact with foreign partners in the future. This is most relevant for specialists in foreign trade, international law, and export industries. Although foreign education is not always thorough in terms of theory and coverage of basic disciplines like our education, it is clearly tailored to the needs of the employer.
