Education information

Nowadays, higher education abroad for many international students is the key to a successful career, a high position in society and a decent salary. SMAPSE offers more than 100 of the best universities and colleges abroad where foreign students can get Higher education: Europe, the USA, Canada, etc.

At the same time, many are limited to obtaining higher education in one of their local universities. Those who are not indifferent to the future often think about entering one of the foreign universities in order to obtain a prestigious international diploma abroad, and recently, the fundamental factor in this is not the prestige of the educational institution, but the level of knowledge and prospects for subsequent employment.

The most prestigious and demanded directions of higher education abroad are:

Foreign students can get inexpensive higher education abroad that is possible to obtain in Europe, including Germany, Austria, Spain, France, Holland, Sweden, etc.

Higher education abroad is most popular in English because of its global nature. But students also choose to study in German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, or Chinese.

Best Universities Abroad for Higher Education: A 6-Point Guide

Graduating from one of the top 100 recognized higher education institutions abroad, especially those in the United Kingdom or the United States, often leads to enhanced job opportunities and faster career progression. But how do you make the right choice when it comes to selecting a university for your higher education? It's essential not just to rely on online reviews but to also consult expert opinions in the field of academia. Consider, for instance, the reputable QS-THES-200 world university ranking which evaluates universities based on a variety of criteria.

When considering higher education abroad, it's recommended to evaluate universities on the following factors:

Overall Academic Reputation (40% weightage)
Student-to-Teacher Ratio (20% weightage)
Graduate Employment Success with Reputable Employers (10% weightage)
Popularity Among International Students (5% weightage)
Citation Index (This evaluates the significance of university alumni who went on to become notable scientists or researchers; 40% weightage)
Proportion of International Faculty (5% weightage)

With these factors in mind, international students will be better positioned to choose from the vast array of Master's programs offered by universities abroad, ensuring they get the best value for their higher education fees.

What firstly should be considered when choosing a university? Subjects, employer value, percentage of employment in the first year after graduation?

It depends on the student - everyone determines the most important criteria for himself. I would advise you to take several rankings and compare them with each other, plus take into account the cost of the course, the location of the university and its scale, the percentage of graduates' employment. See where graduates continue their studies or where they go to work.

Exploring Higher Education Options Abroad: Programs and Opportunities

When it comes to pursuing higher education abroad, there are a multitude of options to consider. International students seeking to study at English-speaking universities after completing grade 11 can explore a range of programs offered by the top 100 universities around the world. These programs aim to bridge the gap between secondary education and university-level studies, providing a solid foundation for academic success.

Foundation program, Pathway program: These programs are tailored for international students who aspire to enroll in English-speaking universities. They differ from local preparatory courses, as they assume a certain level of prior education. They are essential for those lacking the typical 12-year school education found in Western systems.

Undergraduate: International students can pursue both their first and second bachelor's degrees. This level of education opens doors to diverse academic experiences.
Master: Master's programs typically span 1 to 3 years, during which students engage in research and undertake projects of their own. These programs facilitate specialization and skill development.
Exploring these diverse higher education opportunities abroad can pave the way for a bright and fulfilling academic journey. Whether you're aiming for a bachelor's, master's, or specialized business education, international universities offer programs to meet your goals.
Pre-Masters: Pre-Masters programs, often referred to as preparatory courses, are designed for international students planning to continue their education at the master's level.

MBA (Master of Business Administration): The MBA program offers specialized master's degrees in various business fields. Typically lasting for 2 years, it equips international students with the knowledge and skills necessary for high-level management roles.

University Transfer Program or University Pathway Program: University Transfer Programs and University Pathway Programs are educational courses aimed at preparing students for admission to bachelor's degree programs and, in some cases, direct entry into the second year of a foreign university.
Advanced Courses: These courses offer a diverse range of additional knowledge and skill enhancement opportunities. Combining these qualifications with higher education obtained abroad can significantly enhance international students' career prospects and open doors to a more successful future.

Pros and cons of Higher Education Abroad

Pros:

Exceptional academic support
Top-tier pedagogical standards with highly skilled educators
Complete immersion in the academic environment
A comprehensive range of courses spanning all knowledge domains

Cons:

Potentially high financial outlay

However, there's good news for budget-conscious students: SMAPSE provides more affordable avenues for obtaining higher education abroad in countries like Germany, Austria, and Spain.

Higher Education Abroad. Cost and Fees for international students

A common perception is that only the affluent can bear the cost of higher education abroad, especially at prestigious universities, such as those in the TOP-100 of the QS-THES-200 rankings. While these elite institutions do come with heftier fees, many international universities offer quality education at rates comparable to domestic institutions.

Typically, tuition fees for these top universities abroad range between USD 15,000 and USD 50,000 per year. Making an informed choice can ensure international students get the best value for their investment in higher education.

Hello. My children are 15, will go to grade 9. Interested in English schools; vocational guidance; secondary and higher education in Europe, in particular in Belgium, Germany, Czech Republic. The so-called distance education is gaining relevance, which has become online due to the development of communication technologies. Are there options for online versions of educational programs?
