Why To Study in Finland?

Finland has been the study destination for many students from many parts of the world. In almost all polytechnics and Universities we can see students from Nepal, Russia, Germany, Spain, Italy, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Thailand, Turkey, Pakistan, China, Vietnam, Afghanistan, Bangladesh and other Europeans nations etc etc...., Taking CIMO's website as a reference I am going to jot down some good reasons for any international student to choose Finland.

• FREE EDUCATION.
• Nordic Country & EU country and Schengen Visa allows to travel 24 Schengen Nations.
• Unique Culture, Unspoilt Nature
• Internationally recognized expertise in many areas and Institutions of Higher education such as Universities and Polytechnics.
• Free Library and computer with good Internet connectivity. (There are also some polytechnics which provides Laptops to students even though they are providing free education).
• Finns are believers in equal right.
• Geopolitical Location is good. (Sweden, Norway, Russia and Estonia are Neighbour countries student can also go to these highly developed countries and can open up their perspectives and expertise in various field of study and business).
• Some 7000 foreign students representing more than 40 nationalities are studying in Finland thousands of others come for exchange programmes or independently.
• More than 300 international study programmes in English consequently excellent choice of subjects is available.
• Scholarships for post-graduate study and research. ( Finnish University and polytechnics provides not only free education they also fund to for your placement study of many degree programmes and also fund during your exchange study hours if you go anywhere as exchange student from Finland.
• Interdisciplinary (Russian & East European studies) to Intercultural studies.

In spite of these exciting facilities there are lots of students who are not fully satisfied with Finnish Education system and some other issues about Finland. Some argue that Education quality is not good as expected and it doesn't make student deserve to compete with the pace of 21st century. Many students from different polytechnics and Universities grumble about the teachers from their institution are not competent as they need to be. As far as the issues regarding jobs is concerned, it is a tough job to get job in Finland. Although you can survive here with English, Finnish is highly preferred and in many places it is pre-requisite to get jobs. Talking about temperature, it reach up to '-30' degree Celsius during winter, though everybody are adopting, it is very difficult during winter. We need to spent most of the hours inside the room. All the beauty of Finland is destroyed by snow during winter.
