Why should anyone consider Australia as the ideal destination to do tertiary studies? Learn by visiting Edlocate event on 7th Feb 2026 at the Taj Samudra Hotel
View(s):The biggest advantage in doing a bachelor or a post graduate degree in an Australian University is the ability to get valuable work experience related to the degree for minimum 2 years on completion of the degree. A degree could be obtained whilst in Sri Lanka through a state university, through UGC approved higher educational providers or through a foreign university conducting degree courses through private educational providers. Some of these degrees may not have international recognition due to limited nature of curriculum and course contents being substandard. A degree so obtained may open up a career but if you complete an internationally recognised degree and obtain 2 years of related work experience in an established industry leader, you could expect a so much better career.
What do Australian universities offer you?
• Their courses at all levels are updated regularly in line with international industry developments and career expectations.
• Universities in Australia work closely with industry giants enabling focussed students to obtain work experience. The minimum two years post study work visa granted enables to earn handsome salaries during the two years.
• Australia welcomes international students and there are plenty of opportunities to do casual work during your studentship thus earn sums to meet at least your personal expenses
• Post graduate students have special privileges.
• High achieving students could be promoted to receive handsome university scholarships.
• Once you complete your degree & post study work experience you could even decide to live and work in Australia if you meet the residency requirements.
Students who sat the Sri Lanka A/L examination just concluded and obtain “exceptional” results could seek to secure the new “scholarship scheme introduced by the government of Sri Lanka” to do undergraduate studies in best universities in the world. Under this scheme students who qualify to obtain such scholarships could take advantage of extra facilities offered in Australia and enrol in some of the world’s leading universities based in Australia. We are happy to assist such students and guide them towards this end providing assistance to secure the required level of English for enrolments.
This February, Edlocate is bridging the gap between Sri Lankan ambition and Australian opportunity, helping students transform their academic achievements into international success. Choosing a degree is no longer just about personal interest; it is about strategic career planning. The international job market including the demands for professionals in Sri Lanka is constantly evolving, with specific sectors showing a critical need for skilled graduates. Let the counsellors of Edlocate who work closely with their counterparts in international offices of the universities we represent help and guide you to choose the right path with high demand balancing your preferences with your capabilities too.
Navigating the journey to be enrolled into an international university in a timely manner and obtaining the student visa is a complex process. It involves a number of stages and a number of critical decisions especially with regards to finances and meeting the requirements to be issued with student visa. Some students without much thought apply for placements by lodging applications and obtaining offer letters and then seek our assistance to finalise enrolment and visa issuance. This thus become a costly process. We therefore advise all students to seek our help and assistance from day one. We do not charge any professional handling fee thus by all means contact us from the inception to enrol in any university in Australia including the top ranked Go8 universities.
