Europe

Europe is a continent located entirely within the northern hemisphere and mostly in the eastern hemisphere. It comprises the westernmost peninsulas of the continental landmass of Eurasia, and is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and Asia to the east. Europe is commonly considered to be separated from Asia by the watershed of the Ural Mountains, the Ural River, the Caspian Sea, the Greater Caucasus, the Black Sea, and the waterways of the Turkish Straits. Although much of this border is over land, Europe is usually accorded the status of a full continent due to its great physical size and also the weight of its history and traditions.

1. Study in Europe: the boost for your career
International experience has become more and more important in recent years. Large and small companies both search for employees who have left their “comfort zone”. By studying abroad in Europe, you set the course for your career success. Many European countries also make an endeavour to convince foreign graduates to remain after university. Which means if you opt to study in Europe, the possibilities are good that you simply will get employment offer and may stay for the longer term.

 

2. Europe offers world-class education and research
Many of the world’s best universities are located in Europe. Cross-border cooperation’s within Europe have shaped a robust international academic community that conducts cutting-edge research.

 

3. A wide range of education options
There are thousands of universities in Europe, offering tens of thousands of study programmes in English. You’ll find programmes in any academic discipline from Arts to Zoology; small, intimate universities or large international research centres; innovative academic research programmes or practice-oriented taught education. There’s something for everyone.

 

 

4. Tuition fees are low
Compared to countries like the US, Canada or Australia, the tuition fees at the most public universities in Europe are very low. In some European countries, there aren’t even any tuition fees - studying at university is freed from charge! There also are numerous scholarship opportunities and other options for funding during your studies.

 

 

5. It’s easy to travel and discover the entire continent
When you study in Europe, you should use the prospect to ascertain more countries than just one. Due to a wealth of cheap flight, train and bus connections, and comparatively short travel times, that is even possible on a limited student budget and with tight semester schedules.
If you are a non-European citizen studying within the Schengen Area of 26 European states then you'll be able to easily obtain a student visa allowing you to go to other countries of the Schengen Area. Think about all the great experiences you'll gain even far-off from campus.

 

6. The higher education systems are well-respected and aligned
Thanks to the Bologna process of reforms, the national higher education systems of all European countries are aligned. Which means that any Bachelor or Master in Europe follows an equivalent general academic framework. So, if you obtain your Master’s degree in Sweden, it will be similar to a Master’s degree from Germany, Lithuania or the United Kingdom.

 

7. You can study in English
Not only are there several thousand Bachelors and Masters in English that you can select from. In most European countries, the proficiency in English is mostly very high. Which means even though you struggle to find out the basics in Polish, Portuguese or Swedish, you can always get by with English in everyday situations.
