Second, the master's popular major

There are many choices in Sweden. For example, urban planning and design are very popular, while electronic physics and real estate management are the hottest majors in Sweden. At the same time, there are also majors in power engineering, software engineering and infrastructure engineering. After graduation, they all have a high development in Sweden, and they can also become Swedish educators, who are highly respected and have high salaries. Swedes attach great importance to children's education. Sweden is a very rich country.

There are many popular majors in studying in Sweden. Students can not only gain a lot of knowledge here, but also get corresponding scholarships. Education in Sweden is very civilized, and the Swedish study abroad diploma is also internationally recognized. Therefore, it is very important to choose a good major to study in Sweden. Sweden is a small Nordic country, but many domestic resources are excellent, so it is very popular with immigrants at home and abroad. At the same time, studying in Sweden can also choose to teach Chinese as a foreign language, which is also very good.

Third, the advantages of studying in Sweden

1. Education is free and English is taught.

The reason why Sweden receives the same attention as France and Germany is that tuition fees are completely free. Sweden is one of the most developed countries in the world, and its social welfare and public safety are among the best. China students can save a lot of money by choosing to study in Sweden. Like France and Germany, the Swedish government attaches great importance to universal education. Not only primary and secondary education is free, but even universities do not charge tuition fees. Overseas students studying in Swedish public universities can also enjoy national treatment.

Swedish universities generally teach undergraduates in Swedish, while postgraduates and doctoral students generally teach in English.

2. High welfare countries

Foreign students who have studied in Sweden for more than one year are automatically registered and can enjoy free medical care. Therefore, studying in Sweden only costs 40,000-50,000 RMB per year. In addition, Sweden also implements a unique immigration policy. For example, China citizens can apply for naturalization if they have lived with Swedish citizens for two years (without marriage). When the mother reaches retirement age, the only child can also apply for a subsidy equivalent to 4,500 yuan/month for her mother in China.

3. Credit system and degree system have their own characteristics.

Swedish universities implement credit system and degree system. The score of each course is different, generally 5- 10. A student can get 1 point every week, and generally get 20 points after one semester. A major needs to accumulate more than 80 points, that is, at least two years of study. After reaching this score, the school will issue professional certificates to students to prove their academic qualifications. After that, if students continue to study, they can get a bachelor's degree after completing 120, including 60 points for professional courses and 10 for independent degree thesis. If the score reaches 160, including 80 points for specialized courses and 20 points for independent papers, you can get a master's degree. Only those with a score of 160 or above are eligible for doctoral studies, which usually takes four years to study.
