@ Seng_Kiat:

Maybe after your Degree, you could TRY to work and at the same time study at Australia.

Where your money will circulate within Australia itself, instead of just flowing into Australia only. Get what I mean? So you don't have to rely 100% on your parent's account.

just want to ask? how to Work and study in Australia? can us just go to Au to work even though we are not studying there b4? from what i know, we have to study/graduate in Au in order for us to work there....

what if those who have Australia degree, but not study there? (twinning programm), can or not it consider as au student??? then can we work there?

Basically anyone can work in australia if you are allowed to do so by the Australian government. But the thing is, you can't just enter australia and demand that you'll be given a job.It is quite complicated, something like in the UK.

You can work part-time to subsidise your studies, typically not more than 20 hours per week. It does lessen the burden on your parents but it cannot be the only source to finance your education.

waht type of job that we can apply? like i m in IT field, would it possible that i get a job related to waht i study? or i just can work all those restaurant part-time job?

just an idea, l m a gov servant, so would it be ok, if i take a half-pay leave to study overseas? i get a loan fr bank, and with my half pay salary, i use it to pay the tuition fees.. any suggestion/comment of this idea?

Depends on your luck, you may or may not get it.

Since you are working for the government, why not apply for a government sponsorship.

cause i m using my diploma to apply for my current gov job. can i apply for master using my diploma? that's y i afraid that they won;t allow if i apply for sponsor ship for master. Master degree is only applicable for those pegawai who have degree , not penolong pegawai...

actually i have my degree, but the gov doesn't recognise it.. that's y i use diploma... Malaysian Government doesn't want to recognise overseas degree but they allow foreign universities to open branch campus here... and they want to make Malaysia an Education Centre Point where as they dun even recognise the certificate..

To all those people that think they can get a job easily, please think carefully. With the opening up of China and India, you will be facing competition from Chinese and Indians for jobs in countries such as USA, Canada, UK and Australia. Due the size of their population, they have a lot of smarter people in oversea than Malaysians.

In USA, the main reason why Malaysian got hired to work at restaurant as waiter/ waitress is because we have better English than the Chinese from Mainland. But this advantange is slowing going away. The competition for job is a lot taugher than in Malaysia.

You may have a easier time if you have a foreign universoty degree.

That is not a foreign university degree in my book. It is local private university degree. When I mean foreign universoty degree, I mean that you get your degree in foreign country. It might be a twinning program.

Let's say you get your bachelor degree in Australia, it will be easier for you to apply for master and jobs plus scholoarship in Australia. You know the situation in that country plus the employer has an idea what kind of degree that you have.

the branch campus of a foreign univ, does it count as foreign degree???

You have never stay at Australia and the Australian do not know you.

ok.. but i still can apply for master in Au, right?

Dreamer.. are u studying in Au? or graduated from there? can share some infor on studying master there? what can i do to earn some expenses if i decide to study there?

^ of course u can apply, no one is stopping u from doing that, but what will happen is that it wont necessarily mean u'll get a place. and yea, u can work part time, IF you can find a part-time job, it'll be more than enough to support your expenses if you use sparingly. the school fees u still need to pay tho, since the part time earnings will only be enuff to cover your expenses.

if your degree from curtin miri?

1) I got my BSEE and MSEE from USA. I lived and worked in USA for many years. I only visited Australia. In USA, rich universities give scholarship and teaching assitantship to smart students around the world to study and do research in USA. If you are very good, there is no problem doing that. Money is never the issue. But, are you that good?? Can you compete with the rest of world?? Please noted that they (Indians and Chineses) came from world ranked universities too.

2) Please noted that a good result in this case mean your result is good enough to beat/compete with the smart students from India and China.

3) Are you that good?? If you are and your lecturer is famous, you should ask your lecturer to recommend where to go in Australia.
