Studying in Belgium, part-time job can travel all over Europe.

Studying in Belgium, part-time job can travel all over Europe. Belgium is small, but it is the center of Europe, the seat of the North Atlantic Organization and the headquarters of the European Union. The education in Belgium has inherited the education civilization in Europe, and some universities are at the leading level in the world in biology and applied science research. If you want to know the distant European civilization, feel the blend of Germanic culture and Roman culture, taste rich Belgian chocolate and beer, learn more fluent foreign languages such as French, German or Dutch, travel around Europe, or collect some Belgian diamonds, then you must study in glad you came.

You should know all aspects clearly before going abroad.

Pick up your wallet and concentrate on your studies.

The Kingdom of Belgium is a federal country composed of communities and regions. The so-called community is mainly a concept of people divided by language and culture. Belgium is located at the junction of Latin culture and Germanic culture, so there are three official languages: Dutch, French and German. According to the distribution of language areas, three societies were formed: Flemish society, French society and German society. Due to the economic demand for autonomy, Belgium is divided into three regions: Flanders, Brussels-Capital Region and Walloon Region. Flanders includes five Dutch-speaking provinces, and Flanders Brabyn is one of them. The Brussels Capital Region is actually located in the Flemish area, and Dutch and French are used. Walloon is French-speaking.

Most of Belgium's pillar industries, such as important ports, automobile assembly bases, tourism and high-tech medium-sized enterprises, are concentrated in Flanders, so the regional government is more able to fund educational institutions. Therefore, studying in Belgium and studying in national universities funded by the governments of Flanders and Brussels-Capital Region, such as Leuven University, Free University of Brussels, Ghent University, etc., can enjoy the same tuition-free treatment as local citizens, and generally teach in Dutch. However, it is difficult to earn enough tuition and living expenses when working in universities in the Walloon region, such as Liè ge University and Leuven University. China students who have a certain foundation in English will also choose English-based institutions, such as International School of Management and Hotel Management. However, business students need to charge full tuition fees.

According to the information provided by the Belgian Consulate in Shanghai, a student needs at least 350,000 Belgian francs (equivalent to 88,000 RMB) a year, which includes books, accommodation, food, transportation, health insurance and other expenses, but does not include school registration fees; Depending on the courses chosen by the students, the registration fee ranges from 25,000 Belgian francs (students have scholarships) to 95,000 or even 290,000 Belgian francs (self-funded students), not including the travel expenses from China to Belgium.

Therefore, generally speaking, studying in Belgium requires a good economic foundation. First of all, we should consider those universities funded by the government, and these universities are really the essence of Belgian universities, with high teaching quality, advanced teaching facilities and perfect services. Although the Belgian government allows foreign students to work, the new generation of China students are still willing to spend more time on their studies and understanding European culture, because they will have better opportunities to make money after their studies.

Part-time travel in Europe

The Belgian government allows international students to take part-time jobs after school, but it does not allow international students to work without studying. The examination is based on the student's annual examination report card (not the examination result). Therefore, no matter how much time students spend working, traveling, or sitting in street cafes drinking coffee and reading books, exams are necessary.

If you need to work to make up for the cost of study and living, it is suggested that international students can not only engage in service industry, but also engage in formal work. Belgium's electronics industry is very developed. If students have strong English communication skills and certain electronic knowledge, they will have an advantage in finding a job. People who find formal jobs before graduation often become role models for international students.

If you are studying in a national university in Belgium, you can do odd jobs to earn pocket money on weekends and travel around Europe. Belgium is a country with a shortage of labor, and the labor price is relatively high. According to the overseas students, the average salary of a part-time job is about 5 euros (200 Belgian francs) per hour, and the salary on weekends is usually 123~ 136 euros (5000-556). If it is much lower than these figures, it is unfair.

It is best for international students to be employed by Belgians and ask their bosses to pay taxes to the government. By the end of the year, most of the income tax will be returned to taxpayers by the government. A good record of paying taxes truthfully is also very beneficial for applying for permanent residence and citizenship in the future. Relatively speaking, there are not many employers who take the initiative to file tax returns for foreign employees such as Asians.
