Mahasiswa Teknik Sipil USU

All of the people wanna study abroad. Espesially in the centre of education, such as United States, United Kingdom, Europe, Asia, Aussi and so on. In this chance, I wanna tell you about our consideration if we we wanna study abroud.

1.Certification / Accreditation
We must know the certification from university before we apply the doument. You can see in DIKTI(Direktorat Perguruan Tinggi / Directorate General for High Education) for certification.

2.Quality
I think if we wanna study abroad,we must see the background of the university. Such as if you wanna study about economics, you can choose UK or Aussi, if you wanna study about law,you can choose leiden university in holland, if your background is agriculture, you can choose wageningen university in Holland. Depend on your background,be careful!!! You must looking for many universities,so you have many choices.

3.Tuition Fee
If you get scholarship,of course you are paid by donatur

4.Facilities
I think we must know about the facilities in campus, such as lecturer background, laboratory, library and so on.

5.Accomodation
Usually, many universities have dormitory for international student.

6.Transportation

In my experience, when I went study comparative in holland with DIKTI and others student, I saw almost student in holland use bicycle to go campus. beside can make us health,it can make us thrifty. Each country has different transportation.

7.Length of study
Usually, if we wanna take postgraduate programme, it takes 2 years to finish. But, In UK, postgraduate programme must finish in one year,so you mustbe ready if you study to UK.

8.Food
It's an important thing for us,espesially indonesia. Because if you study in europe or US, you seldom find rice there. Usually,the people in europe eat bread for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Because vegetable is very expensive there.

And then you must know 2 questions below before you go there....

A. The problems met by Indonesian students in foreign country???
B. The Culture in foreign country??
