Students all praise for Austrian universities

VIJAYAWADA: Several students, who are studying in two Austrian universities, Europe, have described the educational environment in that country as “safer and more secure” than most other foreign destinations.

They say that Indian students enjoy a lot of opportunities by studying in the Austrian universities.

An experience sharing and pre-departure meeting was held for local students at Manor Food Plaza here on Sunday under the aegis of Astra Education Consultants.

For students of higher technical educations, the Austrian universities had more scope largely because of their name and fame for excellence in this particular field.

Shri Ramya, a B.Tech graduate who got admission in MS instrumentation there, said that Austria was very safe secure for foreign students and the overall educational scenario was good. Moreover, the fee was also less and there was no need for GRE or TOEFL scores to get admission.

The educational consultants were showing enthusiasm in recommending and encouraging Indian students to go to Austria despite the fact that the education as a bit tough in terms of syllabus and standards.

Total attention

If a student would give total attention to studies without looking at small earnings, he or she would have a brighter future after completing the courses there.

T.V. Bhaskara Rao, consultant, Astra Education Consultants, said that he would make it a point that students would not hunt for part-time jobs there so that they would be able to pursue their higher technical education successfully.

Firm view

He was of the firm view that students, who concentrated fully on studies while in overseas universities, went on to savour success in their professional careers later.

They admitted nearly 88 students into the two universities of Austria, which were the University of Klagenfurt, Klagenfurt, and the Carinthia University of Applied Sciences, Villach.
Of these students, 35 members took admission this year and they were going to board the plane soon. Giri Babu, a parent, said that his son was studying there for the second year and they were happy over the educational conditions there.
