Popular Degree Programs in Australia

Students know that having a study abroad semester or year on their transcripts and notated on their resumes helps to make them stand out among other recent college graduates seeking employment in an increasingly global marketplace. Many students choose to go to college in Australia. A beautifully scenic country with an interesting cultural heritage, Australia also offers world-class educational and research opportunities for students wishing to study for a semester, year or for a full college degree. Several popular degree programs are available at Australian colleges.
Education and teaching bachelors degree programs attract students from around the world to Australian college campuses. For those who have or are about to earn a bachelors degree but would like to add a teaching certification program, you can take the additional classes that you need to accomplish this in Australia. Course work takes from one to two years, depending on the specific course of study you select.
With such natural diversity in Australia, it is no wonder that Environmental degree programs are wildly popular. Degree programs available include ecotourism, field biology, forestry, park administration and sustainable development, to name but a few.
Australian universities are some of the top ones in the world that offer Business and MBA degrees. Nobel Prize winners are professors at some of the top universities in Australia, teaching in the areas of Economics. A Masters degree in a Business subject area can often be completed in only one year of study, and an MBA in one to two years.
Studying abroad provides an excellent way to earn a degree in International Relations. Several top colleges in Australia offer programs in International Relations or International Diplomacy. These include Australian National University, Bond University, Griffith University, University of Technology Sydney and others.
Another popular course of study is for a Medical degree. Undergraduate programs of five to six years in length area available in the Medical program, and if you already have earned a bachelors degree then you could start right away in the Graduate Entry Medicine course of study, which typically takes four years to complete. Students who live in the United States, after completing an Australian medical degree, will need to complete their residency requirements in the United States in order to practice, as well as take a board exam. Canadian students who want to transfer their medical degree back to Canada will need to sit for an evaluating exam once all qualifications have been attained.
