Early warning of studying abroad in Thailand

Early warning of studying abroad in Thailand

First, the safety of studying abroad

A broad sense of security in studying abroad includes both physical and psychological aspects. Everyone is most concerned about the threat of the external environment to students' lives and property, which requires the preparation of the state, society, family and themselves in many aspects and is more controllable.

The psychological safety of international students often becomes a blind spot for everyone to prepare, because the external performance is not particularly obvious, but it is more dangerous, because this aspect can only be adjusted by the students themselves, and the external influence is very small.

Second, the influencing factors

The environment of a country, that is, political situation, natural environment and human environment, has a positive impact on security; Of course, students' personal concern, as well as their usual living habits and knowledge reserves, will also affect safety.

In addition, when applying for schools and majors, everyone must choose safe channels, so as to ensure that they will not be cheated; Of course, after arriving in Thailand, you need to learn to seek the assistance of a third-party organization.

Third, personal protection.

At the domestic stage, everyone needs to actively learn some means of self-protection to improve their safety awareness, whether alone or in contact with others, they need to be vigilant.

Especially in the early days of Thailand, foreign students without friends need to communicate with the outside world frequently when they start a new life. If they meet inappropriate people, it is likely to have a great impact on their normal life.

Fourth, social security.

Of course, just protect yourself. The strength is still relatively weak, and everyone should learn to nip in the bud. When you arrive in Thailand, you should find the embassy as soon as possible, register your basic information, and ensure the positioning information after losing contact.

In addition, be sure to buy insurance. In addition to regular medical insurance, you can also buy accident insurance and critical illness insurance, and you can respond in time and provide assistance after encountering emergencies.

Second, the visa is fast.

Third, the cost is low

The school's fees for studying by stages are not high, and the professional influence is not too great. There are about 30,000 undergraduates, 40,000-60,000 masters, and 60,000-80,000 doctors. The annual living expenses will not exceed 50,000, and they can live very well.

Fourth, the life span is short.

Fifth, the requirements are low.

The entrance threshold is generally low, the academic qualifications are for reference only, and the postgraduate status is a plus item, which widely accepts students' applications; English is generally used for teaching, and you can take the preparatory course first, but you must ensure that the language is qualified when you enter the school.

It's not cold at all in winter, but it may be a little hotter in summer. As an immigrant country, there are a large number of Chinese here, and everyone's life is very convenient.

Eight, the distance is close

Thailand is also a neighbor of China. There are many tourist routes between the two countries, and the ticket price is very cheap all the year round. Not only is it convenient for everyone to return to China, but the cost of returning to China is very low. It is the first choice for studying abroad.

Extended reading: an analysis of the misunderstanding of studying in Thailand

1. Studying in Thailand is the choice of poor students.

Generally speaking, studying abroad belongs to elite education, and studying in the United States, Europe, Canada, Europe and other countries is the choice. Few people pay attention to some countries in Southeast Asia, including Thailand. So when I learned about studying in Thailand, I had the idea that poor students chose Thailand.

Applying for studying in Thailand is the same as studying in many other countries. Because the education system is different, the results of the college entrance examination are only for reference, but it cannot be said that studying in Thailand is the choice of poor students. Thailand has inherited the Commonwealth education system of 150 years. The quality, educational environment and teaching level of higher education in Thailand have been developing steadily, and the degree of internationalization of education is far ahead in the world. Thai universities combine leniency with severity, and the teaching mode is quite different from that of domestic universities. They no longer pay attention to grades and exams, but pay more attention to students' usual performance. From the perspective of all-round development such as knowledge mastery, teamwork and personality cultivation, if you want to graduate smoothly, you must have real talents and practical learning, and the gold content of your education will be higher!

2. After graduation, academic qualifications are not recognized by China.

At present, China has established educational cooperation and exchange relations with 188 countries and regions and 46 important international organizations, and signed mutual recognition agreements for higher education degrees with 54 countries. Thailand and China signed an agreement on mutual recognition of academic degrees in higher education as early as 2007, and renewed the relevant documents on 20 10. That is to say, all universities on the list of higher education institutions recognized by the Thai government are recognized by the China government.

Many people on the Internet don't know how to check the latest list, and they are confused. Or some websites don't sign the list, and they unilaterally think that some universities are not recognized by China, and finally they miss the opportunity to go to college. The easiest way is to log on to the Thailand Study Abroad Service Network, where you can find the latest list of universities affiliated to the Higher Education Committee of the Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation of Thailand (2020).

Public universities must be better than private universities.

According to the official classification, Thai universities are divided into five categories: public autonomous universities, public ordinary universities, royal universities, royal polytechnic universities and private universities. Many people often fall into a misunderstanding that public universities must be chosen to study abroad, and the education level of private universities is not good!

In fact, public universities refer to universities founded and maintained by the national government or local governments, while private universities pay more attention to research, small class teaching and students themselves. Never underestimate the strength of private universities in Thailand. Private colleges and universities rely on the market to survive, offer courses to meet the market demand, and the courses are constantly innovating, and the teaching quality is the guarantee of their survival.

In order to give graduates a broader prospect, many universities will continue to optimize their courses and attract excellent teachers. Many private universities have a high starting point, complete software and hardware facilities, strong faculty and discipline construction, and often cooperate with famous universities in Thailand, such as Mahidol University and Chulalongkorn University, which is a very good educational platform.

4. Studying in Thailand is chaotic and the campus environment is poor.

Compared with the United States, Europe and other countries, Thailand is more suitable for China people to live, travel, study and work. Thailand is a Buddhist country. More than 94% people believe in Buddhism. They get along well with others and have a good social order. It can be said that studying in Thailand is very enjoyable.

There is nothing to worry about in the campus environment. We are going to study and improve our education. Thailand itself is a tourist country with a good natural environment. Thailand also attaches great importance to education. Take the universities in downtown Bangkok as an example. The campus may be small, but the teaching building, dormitory, canteen, laboratory, gym and other facilities are complete.

At the same time, due to the increasing number of people studying in Thailand, the construction of the new campus has also been upgraded to meet the demand. In the future, learning is a journey, not a dream! The services of many private universities are also very detailed and comprehensive, and even teachers who are proficient in Chinese, English and Thai provide a series of services such as handling overseas study materials, visas, student registration and post-graduation certification.
