Can I go to New Zealand for postgraduate study?

Yes, the conditions for graduate study in New Zealand are relatively relaxed. With the expansion of colleges and universities in China, there are more and more undergraduates, which leads to a severe employment situation for undergraduates. So many students choose to go abroad to study for graduate students. Among them, New Zealand attracts many foreign students to study with its preferential study abroad policy and first-class teaching quality.

New Zealand University Postgraduate Application

First, English requirements

The general English requirement for postgraduate courses in New Zealand universities is IELTS 6.5, such as business, liberal arts, engineering, architecture, natural science and other majors; Some majors have slightly higher requirements for IELTS, such as Education (IELTS 7). If students can get the corresponding IELTS scores, they can directly enroll in graduate courses; If you don't meet the IELTS requirements, you can go to the Language Institute under the University of New Zealand for language course training. After meeting certain requirements, you can enter the postgraduate stage.

Second, the advantages of graduate school

1, you don't have to take any tests.

The conditions for studying in New Zealand are very relaxed, and international students can apply without taking the highly competitive postgraduate examination. As long as China students graduate from university, get a bachelor's degree with excellent results and IELTS 6.5, they can apply for graduate students at New Zealand University. For international students who do not have IELTS scores or whose IELTS scores are not up to standard, they can also study the language after being conditionally admitted to New Zealand, and then study postgraduate professional courses.

2. you can study for graduate students across majors.

Xu Wenjie, a teacher from New Zealand Education Union, said that if international students don't want to continue their undergraduate studies at the postgraduate level, then studying in New Zealand is definitely the best choice, because many overseas countries require graduate students to continue their professional studies when recruiting graduate students, and all institutions in New Zealand have set up relevant bridge courses. Generally speaking, the duration of bridge courses is 0.5- 1 year. Through the bridge course, you can successfully complete the interdisciplinary application for master's degree.

3, can get the diploma faster.

Different from the postgraduate education system in China, it only takes two years to go to New Zealand for postgraduate study, such as business and liberal arts, while the postgraduate curriculum system of engineering, law and education is only 1 year. In this way, international students can get their graduate diplomas faster.

Third, the problems faced by New Zealand graduate schools.

Comparatively speaking, schools in New Zealand are not first-class. If you can go to a first-class university in China, your studies are generally better than the schools here. So the only purpose of studying in New Zealand is to immigrate.

If this is the purpose, a very simple condition is to find a job. However, in view of the unsatisfactory job market in Europe and America, every country gives priority to the employment of its own residents, and New Zealand is no exception. Before going to graduate school, it is necessary to check whether the major of civil engineering is a long-term shortage here. As far as graduate students are concerned, it seems really inappropriate. Studying abroad in the past two years has long been meaningless. No matter from immigration or gilding, it is basically hopeless. There are too many international students in China.

If you return to China for employment, the gold content of the New Zealand diploma is not as good as that of the United States or Canada, and there is not much advantage compared with the domestic one, so you need to weigh the pros and cons; After all, studying in New Zealand requires an expensive deposit and proof of deposit.
