又來插嘴一下......

>There are lots of different postgraduate degrees offered by Australian Universities. Only 3 are recognized by Taiwanese government. They are:- Master’s by COURSEWORK (碩士學位學分班), Master’s by RESEARCH (碩士學位研究班), Doctorate (博士學位).

>碩士學位學分班 takes shorter time to complete (normally 1 1/2 - 2 years). Your chance to finish it is high. If you want to work in industry after your study, you are recommended to do it. Some of my friends only finished專科 and get accepted into 莫爾本大學會計碩士學位學分班. I believe莫爾本大學會計碩士學位學分班 are trying to take as many students as possible.

其實有些大陸人都拼在1年內完成course work的學業 (一學期修四科)

一般coruse work 的課程一學期至少要take三科(因為移民局怕你目的不在留學而在打工), 除非是最後一學期

我想專科畢業直攻碩士還是要補學分吧!

我聽我室友(銘傳三專畢)和她學妹(銘傳大學畢)說

她們跟她們的系爭的頭破血流

卻都還是要補學分

當然我室友補的比她學妹多 (多讀一年)



所以應該看系裡的規定吧..............





>碩士學位研究班 takes longer (2 -2- 1/2 years). Do this if and only if you want to do博士學位 after your 碩士學位.

不一定喔........



我有一個印尼的同學

研一第一學期跟我們一起讀

第二學期就轉去做research了

問她

那不是要讀更久

她說要看論文寫的情況

結果一年後就升了phd班





>博士學位 is the longest (3-5 years). Some of my friends are fighting in their 10th year. Very few students can sustain such a prolonged stress so that the drop out rate (休/退學率) is as high as 50%. You are recommended to do it if and only if you want to be a researcher/professor.

這是真的

我看到3個讀phd的台灣人

一個數學系的, 現在邁入第七年

一個語言學系的, 現在邁入第六年 (聽說只有上洗手間和去學校才出房門)

一個護理系的, 現已休學





>>>不用考托福了嗎?!

>Australian University uses IELTS rather than托福. I never sit for IELTS or 托福 exams and I think it is not a problem.



若不考上面兩考試

進語言班時還是要考英文能力考試才能幫你分班



一般IELTS 5分-5.5分(總分和寫.讀)

才能分進academic的正式班







>For碩士學位學分班, you are expected to be able to:

>1. do oral presentation,

>2. read and understand lecturer notes

>3. read and understand exam questions. And more importantly, write, and let examiner understand your English writing.

>

要看科系哦!

我的系除了上面所說

每一科都要交一兩篇1500-3000的essay

所以修三科時真的都不用睡覺:P

考試每題都要寫短的essay

presentation還有一個人講一節課給大家問一節課的

現在想想當時真不知怎麼過來的





>A good Reference is: The Australia Good University Guide

>http://www.thegoodguides.com.au/gateway-nm2.cfm

>Moreover, apply scholarship if your brother is a good student. Try "overseas scholarship” or “overseas student scholarship” at every Australian university. This is very Very VERY competitive scholarship, but still, someone gets that every year.

這好像蠻難的



目前我所聽過的

只有一個台大經濟系碩士的人拿到



我們班的高材生

系主任給她獎學金求她讀phd

結果學校administration死都不發 :(
