Having trouble viewing this email? - Click here to view online Masters study abroad can broaden your horizons and help your CV stand out to employers. So why not consider Masters study in South Korea? Why consider South Korea? The home of Samsung, LG, Hyundai (yes, and ‘Gangnam Style’), South Korea boasts a university system rising up the international rankings. Its capital, Seoul, has also been voted one of the top cities in the world for higher education. With its world-leading engineering and consumer technology feeding back into innovative Masters programmes, South Korea is a great place to consider postgraduate study abroad. What's it like to study in South Korea? As a Masters student you will typically study for two years, completing coursework and examinations before submitting a thesis. The academic year is divided into semesters, with breaks from July to August and from December to February.   Many postgraduate courses at South Korean universities are taught in English, but in some cases you may be required to take a Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK).  Will my Masters qualification be recognised? A Korean Masters degree will equip you well for further research or employment in the hi-tech fields for which the country is renowned.   Your experiences as a postgraduate student in Asia may also make you more attractive to employers seeking to do business there.   What are the visa requirements? As an international postgraduate student you will usually need to apply for a Visa for Regular Educational Program (D-2). You should begin your application by contacting a South Korean embassy in your home country. For more information on the documents you will be required to submit for a South Korean student visa, see our article on Living in South Korea as a Postgraduate Student. Are there any additional entry requirements? Once you arrive in South Korea you will need to apply for a registration card at an immigration office and notify your own embassy of your presence in the country. Health insurance is also mandatory, but is relatively inexpensive at the equivalent of around $20 per month.   How much will it cost to live there? The currency of South Korea is the South Korean Won, roughly equivalent to $0.001.   Living as a postgraduate student in South Korea is relatively inexpensive: A student using university accomodation and catering facilities will probably need to budget between $400 and $600 per month, in addition to any tuition fees.      What about fees and funding? Fees for a Masters programme in South Korea will usually range between $2,500 and $6,500 per semester. Costs for humanities subjects will usually be at the lower end of this range, with programmes in medicine at the upper limit.   South Korea charges no additional fees to international students. How would I apply? Courses may commence in either of the spring and autumn semesters that make up the South Korean academic year. For entry in March, you will need to apply between September and November; for entry in September the application period runs from May to June. The Korean Government offers an online application service for overseas students. Most Masters programmes will require you to possess a bachelor’s degree or be due to receive one. I'm interested, where can I find out more? You can read our articles on Masters Degrees in South Korea and Living in South Korea as a Postgraduate student for more information on applications, immigration and making the most of your time studying abroad.  image credit to: Emmanuel Dyan, Junezal and Mariosp, with thanks You have received this email from http://www.findamasters.com. click here if you wish to unsubscribe from future emails.
