The major choice of liberal arts students studying in Australia

Recommended for liberal arts students to study in Australia;

1. Education major

Australian teachers have high starting salaries and stable incomes. The demand for teachers in Australia is also growing, and the employment prospects are very impressive. The average teacher's starting salary is about 32,000-55,000 Australian dollars per year, and the annual salary will increase according to the teacher's work situation.

Teachers have always been a shortage of professionals in Australia, especially in science and technology, science and mathematics. With the love and attention of western countries to Chinese, normal students with Chinese and English language ability have strong market competitiveness. In particular, international students who want to immigrate can apply for skilled immigrants in Australia after graduation as long as they have obtained relevant academic qualifications, and the immigration application cycle is short.

Recommended by Australia: University of Melbourne, Monash University, University of South Australia, Griffith University, University of Queensland, La Trobe University, etc.

2. Law major

Commercial law, international law and intellectual property law are now very popular among international students in Australia. However, choosing a law major has higher requirements for applicants. Generally speaking, the IELTS score is about 7 points, and individual schools require 6.5 points. Academically, the average score of China students is required to be around 85.

In Australia, because the federal and state governments have constitutional legislative power, the lawyer system in each state is different, but similar. Generally speaking, becoming a professional lawyer in one state is also recognized by other States.

Recommended by Australia: University of Melbourne, University of Sydney, University of Queensland, Australian National University, University of Western Australia, Bond University, etc.

3. Language translation major

Australian language translation major is favored by international students. Because of its good employment prospects, it attracts many China students to study. It is still a very good choice for people with a good English foundation and weak science and engineering.

All translators in Australia must pass naati certification before they can take up their posts. Naati is an internationally recognized certification body for interpretation and translation, and also an Australian professional certification body for translation.

Three basic evaluation methods:

1) Complete the study courses of relevant Australian institutions or universities recognized or designated by naati.

2) Pass the formula test of naati.

3) Pass naati's overseas translation professional qualification assessment. However, among the three methods, because the proportion of passing the exam is low, and the evaluation requires very rich work experience, and Australia is a country that attaches great importance to the combination of theory and practice, the recognized method is to obtain a degree certified by naati.

Australia recommended: Macquarie University, University of Queensland, West Sydney, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology.

4. Social work major

Internationally, in the field of social science, social work has long been an independent discipline and major, with the same disciplinary status as psychology, sociology, politics and economics, and has formed a relatively mature and complete social work professional education system. As a developed country with very good social welfare, Australia not only enrolls a large number of undergraduates majoring in social work, but also has a master's degree in social work to train senior social work talents with practical orientation.

Curriculum advantages: liberal arts students can choose one of the major of immigration; Moreover, most courses include internships, and the employment prospects and starting salary are very high.
