What is a good education? how to get a good college education how to get a good school education
In the 19th century, there were very interesting customs in the high nobility. You could be ugly, burry or short, but no one would dare to make fun of these shortcomings. But ignorance or stupidity was not forgiven. It was customary to openly ridicule "lack of intelligence" if such a problem was not caused by illness. To date, stupidity, fortunately, is also not held in high esteem. We are sure that you strive to be an educated person, and we want to offer you 5 countries where you can get an excellent education.
1. England
So you've arrived in Bond's home. James Bond. Education in England is traditionally one of the best in the world, so you made the right choice. And for students from Russia, very interesting learning features are presented here. But in the process of collecting documents and studying the conditions for admission, residence, many questions may arise. In addition, adaptation in an unfamiliar country is a rather difficult stage.
To address such difficult issues, the company opened its office in London. Target will help you navigate the cost of education and choose the best language courses for your financial capabilities. You also get direct contact without intermediaries, which will help you resolve any issues after your arrival in the country.
Education of any specialty you can get in 120 universities. The most popular is the humanitarian direction, the cost of which ranges from 12,000 to 14,000 pounds. The most expensive is medical education, the cost of which is 20,000-22,000 pounds per year. This is due to the fact that when studying, students spend a lot of time in laboratories.
The learning process is very interesting. Unlike our universities, most of the training is devoted to practical training in groups, and not to communication with the teacher. In addition, you can choose optional items to your taste, which will be more interesting to you.
If you are interested in this company and the prospects that it offers, then you can personally meet with representatives at the Education Abroad exhibition in Tishinka on October 13-14, 2017.
2. Norway
A country where prisoners are kept in better conditions than the homes of half the world's population. Students from all over the world come to Norway for a European level education. A huge plus is that, regardless of your citizenship, you can get education in this country absolutely free of charge, because the country's educational system is fully funded from the state budget. The only possible fee for international students is fees of 30-60 euros per semester.
The country has 8 universities, 36 colleges (16 of them are private). The most popular universities are the University of Oslo in the capital and Bergen and Stavanger. The University of Oslo has brought up many minds, and five graduates of this educational institution are Nobel laureates. By the way, the Nobel Prize was awarded in this temple of science for 42 years.
The disadvantage of studying in Norway is that living is very, very expensive. On average, utility costs, food, housing rent and other related expenses will come out from 1,000-1,500 euros. But, given the high level of wages and social support from the state, there is always a solution to this problem.
3. Brazil
Are you looking for a warmer country, do you like football and slender girls with excellent shapes? Turn your eyes to Brazil. Few people know that the country, which is famous for its beaches and carnivals, also provides free education. Public universities will not require anything other than a registration fee upon admission. Students also pay for the hostel out of their own pocket.
But there are also difficulties. The training takes place in Portuguese, and in order to start classes, it will be necessary to provide the results of a language proficiency test (successfully passed, of course). In addition, there is a fierce intellectual struggle for vacancies at the university, so you have to show extensive knowledge in the entrance exam. But after you pass all the tests and drop the ring of omnipotence into the abyss of Mordor, all scholarships and support programs will become available to you. The most popular are the faculties that provide an opportunity to get a legal, medical, computer or engineering education.
Education in Brazil is justified if you are going to live there in the future. The motivation is that good specialists with higher education are sorely lacking in this country, which ensures the availability of jobs and good wages.
4. Switzerland
Welcome to the most peaceful country on the planet that can provide a world-class education. Switzerland provides absolute equality in the cost of education. For its citizens and citizens of other states, it is absolutely the same, but foreigners who want to study in this country must pass annual exams in the city of Friborg.
To enter a Swiss university, it is not necessary to speak French or German, because universities themselves will teach languages throughout the entire educational process, and language preparatory programs are absolutely free. Do you know English? Feel free to choose the Anglo-American curriculum.
If you decide to choose to study hospitality in Switzerland, it will provide you with excellent training programs to choose from! Caesar Ritz College (yes, that same chain of hotels) will be a great option for you.
By the way, education in Switzerland is very affordable for Russian citizens: only a certificate of secondary school education is enough, and the result of the Oxford English test must be at least 50 points.
Hotel management training services are provided by the HIM (Hotel Institut Montreux) and SHMS (Swiss Hotel Management School) schools in Montreux. These educational institutions offer a multi-vector study program according to Swiss and American standards, which will allow the graduate to easily find a job in their specialty both in Europe and in the USA. Among other things, school programs provide for the opportunity to work in leadership positions and open up wide opportunities for any type of entrepreneurship, not just hotel business.
Interesting stats:
89% of graduates occupy managerial positions or open their own business;
73% of graduates work in the restaurant or hotel sector;
96% of graduates are employed in luxury hotels.
5. Finland
Finland can be an excellent option to get an education in Europe. An excellent level of education attracts many students from all over the world, moreover, in most universities it is free. The exception is courses in English.
Many students are in a hurry to get a residence permit. It is quite simple to do: you only need to provide documents from the university and prove that you can spend 560 euros per month on living expenses. This amount is greatly underestimated and does not reflect reality, because depending on the chosen place of study, you can spend from 700 to 1,000 euros per month.
An interesting fact is that the training time is unlimited. You can complete educational courses in two years, or you can stretch this process up to 7 years.
In order to work while studying, you will have to learn Finnish, one of the most difficult European languages. But, as a student of a Finnish educational institution, you will receive tangible discounts on public transport, books and even going to the movies.
Education is the starting step in the future working life. What do you mean by "good" education? A survey was conducted, the purpose of which was to find out the opinion of respondents about what they mean by the phrase "good education".
Total sample size: 1600 respondents.
Study population: Russian population aged 18 years and over.
Question: What do you mean by "good education"?
The opinions of the respondents were divided as follows:
Here are the most typical opinions of the respondents:
Prestigious university, prestigious faculty:
"The children of the elite hang out there. After all, success is 99% dependent on who you built a relationship with. If you don't have good connections, you're nobody."
(Manager for work with corporate clients, 44 years old, Moscow);
"If a person was able to enter, and, most importantly, FINISH a prestigious university and a prestigious faculty, about which they talk a lot, where they are afraid to do because of high competitions, then it is clear that behind all this lies a huge amount of work. And the result of work in studying at a university is just a good education."
(Foreign Economic Activity Manager, 23 years old, Minsk);
"A prestigious university, a prestigious faculty - this is a social circle."
(Manager, 23 years old, St. Petersburg).
Education that forms skills, key competencies:
"Work requires skills, practice. A good education is education, where a student spends 80% of academic hours doing laboratory work, practical exercises. A good example of this is the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology, Moscow State University, the Academy of Management and other universities.
(Director, 49 years old, Moscow);
“I wanted to choose an education that teaches self-education, but I can’t even imagine how this can be taught, but how to give a person the necessary skills and competencies (even for the same self-education in the future) I can and consider this the most important.”
(Coach, 33 years old, Moscow);
"A good education is an education that gives skills, knowledge that helps to work successfully in the future."
(Economist, 22 years old, Moscow region);
"Self-education and education that allows you to understand the direction of movement - "find the right vector", that's good!"
(HR manager, 39 years old, Moscow);
"The main thing, in my opinion, in education is to learn to" catch a fish ".
And the need for self-education for life (the period after receiving a diploma and employment) is inherent in very few and strongly depends on the psychological characteristics of the individual's character, his temperament. But simply put, does a person have a "motor" that does not allow him to stop in his development.
(Assistant auditor, 36 years old, Moscow).
Education that teaches "self-education" and acquire knowledge independently throughout life:
"You can graduate from Cambridge and be an ass for the rest of your life. Graduating from a university is not the same as finishing your studies."
(Head of the supply department, 51 years old, Moscow);
"In all the prestigious universities that give a good education, you can't learn, but you need to study all your life. There are no limits for growth. Therefore, in addition to a basic good education, you need to be able to study on your own and have a desire for it if you want to be successful!"
(Financial manager, 40 years old, Magnitogorsk);
"The name of a prestigious university - this can help in life, but if you are essentially an idiot - in your future work practice this will come to light for sure. In my opinion, the institute only teaches how to use knowledge, and you have a very long time to learn your profession, and getting into production after university, in most cases, you have to start learning the profession again.If a person is interested in his profession, he must improve himself all his life, constantly monitor everything new that appears in literature in order to constantly be aware of everything new.Usually this is combined with a high reputation of the university."
(Administrator, 52 years old, St. Petersburg);
"A good education is an education that provides quality training in basic disciplines, instills versatility and flexibility of thinking, the ability to self-study and is given in a university that has a good reputation, recognized in the world."
(Engineer for maintenance of magnetic resonance computed tomographs, 61 years old, Voronezh);
“As one of the philosophers said: “I know that I don’t know everything ...” An “educated” person, in my understanding, is a person who, receiving this or that knowledge, applying it in life, does not stop there, and only over the years it improves, self-educates. The main thing is the knowledge that remains in the head, and it doesn’t matter where you get it. And in prestigious universities, often unfortunately, children of highly paid parents study today. And they don’t worry much about their knowledge, because then "daddies will attach" .... "
(PR service specialist, 30 years old, Krasnodar).
Other:
"What is in demand in the labor market."
(Head, 37 years old, Moscow);
"If a person has a desire to learn something in life and become someone, then not in a prestigious university, but with good teachers without bribes, he will receive a "good education."
(Senior teller, 26 years old, Moscow);
"Often life presents us with such situations that we can only solve them ourselves, and no matter what education you have. You can achieve everything without a higher education."
(Office manager, 37 years old, Mariupol);
"Education that gives you the opportunity to get a good job." (Secretary, 22 years old, Moscow);
"You can get a high-paying job without difficulty."
(Technologist-expert in certification of agricultural products, 21 years old, Moscow).
