Starting a PhD in Australia as an International student Australia has evolved its own system of PhD study. Much like Australia's culture, it is a combination of the English model and the American model, with a stronger influence from Britain. As a result an Australian PhD has no required coursework, no thesis defense and lasts anywhere between 3 and 6 years (with an average of four). New PhD applicants should be aware...more

Check your tyres before you holiday trip With the warming weather, people are starting to plan their spring and summer trips and many decide to go on a road trip. As that trip gets closer, it's essential that people check the air pressure and condition of their tyres (in Swedish, däck) before heading out not only for better safety but also so save in fuel costs. Every second car on the road has the wrong tyre pressure, warns the Finnish tyre manufacturer Nokian Tyres, and this may have serious consequences. High summer temperatures, heavy luggage and high speeds put the tyres under stress. Seven per cent of all break-downs are caused by defective wheels and tyres according to the German Automobile association ADAC break-down statistics 2008. Tyre equipment was responsible for 1184 accidents with bodily injuries in 2009, the Federal Statistical Office of Germany states. If the tyre pressure of one front wheel is 1 bar too low, the braking distance is extended by ten per cent on wet roads, as the ADAC has proven in driving tests. It becomes even more dangerous in curves. If all tyres have an inflation pressure of 1 bar too low, the lateral grip of the tyres is...more

International students: one of Australia's biggest exports Although numbers vary from year to year, it is estimated that upwards of 500,000 overseas students come to Australia to study at universities, technical colleges and private schools. This has made education one of Australia's largest exports and easily the fastest growing over the last decade. The largest group of overseas students is from China and the second largest is from India. Students go to Australia because of its proximity to Asia, its high standard of living, its English speaking institutions and the strong reputation of its top universities. A degree from an institution like the University of Sydney, the University of Melbourne or the Australian National University is extremely well regarded in Asian countries. The typical experience for these students is generally pleasant and they are generally very satisfied with the standard of education they receive; but thousands of students find themselves profoundly unsatisfied with their wider experience in Australia. This is because they often fail to meet many Australians and also find themselves unprepared for the financial and cultural...more
