This is Mozart’s birthplace and also the locale where the all time classic Sound of Music was
shot.
The city has a long history as one of the premier music capitals of Europe and it offers courses
related to the history of music, among other subjects.
Besides, Austria is also known for its courses in tourism and Hotel Management.
Australia is a land of the unexpected- of vast size, amazing natural wealth, awesome scenery
and exotic plant and animal life. There is the availability of an enormous variety of aboriginal
art in the country- right from traditional paintings, modern screen prints, jewellery
and carvings, to boomerangs, didgeridoos, weapons, ceramics, and recordings of traditional
music.
Studying in Australia offers international students more than academic achievement and a
globally recognised qualification. It is an once-in-a-lifetime experience through which a
student can develop independence, maturity, an understanding of other cultures, and the
ability to see issues from different perspectives. Australian Universities prepare a student to
work in today’s global marketplace. This is why several foreign companies recruit directly
from Australian universities and vocational institutes
When to apply: Six to eight months prior to the commencement of the courses
How to apply and whom to address: Complete the International Student Application form
(download from the university web site), attach certified copies of your school / university
transcripts, the international English Language Testing System (IELTS) scores and send them
to the International Education or the IDP Education Australia office (Website:
www.idp.com). You can send the application directly to the universities also.
Deadlines: Though universities have their own deadlines, they usually end three months
before the commencement of the session. Some Universities accept late applications subject to
the availability of seats.

Purpose (SoP), mark sheets and certificates, transcripts, letters of recommendation, IELTS
scores, work experience letters, photocopy of your passport and photographs.

Academic Year: In France the academic year begins in September or October and ends in May
or June. The exact starting and ending dates vary from institution to institution and from
program to program.
The French educational system is distinguished by the variety of its institutions, each with its
own goals, structure, and admission requirements. They are divided into two broad types:
universities and specialized schools.
Language Ability: Most of the academic programs offered in France are taught in French
So a prior knowledge of the French language is strongly recommended. Having a good
command of French is one of the best ways you can ensure the success of your stay. However,
in order to attract more international students, French Universities are now increasingly using
English as the medium of instruction specially in areas like management, engineering, political
sciences etc.

For the international student an important feature of most German universities is that
they do not charge tuition fees. University education in Germany is federally funded
Admission procedure: There are two ways by which admission to German universities can be
sought :
Commencement of semester/s
Important deadlines for accepting applications: For Indian students, who mostly wish to
pursue one of the International Degree Programmes (courses conducted in the English
medium), application deadlines are around March of the year in which admissions sought. You
should, however, check the exact dates with the university you are applying to.
Tentative month to know result: Results are usually known by June or July.
Application docket: Students are required to submit the university application form duly
filled up along with authenticated copies of their education and work experience certificates
(as may be required). Applications routed through ASSIST will have to be sent to the ASSIST
office in Germany along with a proof of payment of the ASSIST application-processing fee.
Academic background: German universities have a very high academic standard. Thus,
students who wish to study in Germany also have to have a strong and impressive educational
track record. A student’s academic background should be related to the field of study he
wishes to pursue in Germany.
Recommendation letters: Some universities may ask for recommendation letters. These
should be genuine and expressive in nature. A mere “he was a good student …” will not get
you very far.
Extra curricular activities: There is no harm in sending this type of information – however,
you need not if you wish.
Standardized tests: SAT is required for UG Programmes, TOEFL or IELTS scores are also
mandatory, Universities offering PG programmes in Engineering may ask for a GRE score and
those offering MBAs may want a GMAT score. Since the medium of instruction in most
German institutions is English, proficiency in German language is not a necessary criterion for
admission decisions to be made. However, a student is expected to show his proficiency in the
German language for better living. It is imperative that students have at least a basic
knowledge of German.
Cost factor: Living expenses may range between 300 and 600 Euro a month depending on the
university’s location. Metros are more expensive than smaller towns.
Course fee: Germany’s state funded universities do not charge any tuition fees as they are
borne by the German taxpayer. A recent ruling passed in the German Supreme Court, says that
individual State Governments are free to decide whether or not they want to introduce tuition
fees. The Federal States are at present extremely undecided on this issue.
Cost of living on – campus, off-campus: There is not much difference in the cost of living on
or off campus.
Tuition scholarships, fee waivers: Universities have very limited scholarships, which are
offered only to the most brilliant and outstanding students. Other funding organizations like
the DAAD may have something to offer, but their funding possibilities are meant mostly for
Ph.D. and post – doctoral studies.
Permitted working hours for extra income: Students are allowed to work off campus for
maximum of 180 half days (four hours of work per day) without obtaining any special permit.
There is no restriction on the number of hours for on campus jobs, which are in some way or
the other related to a student’s programme of study.
Student visa: Students who are successful and obtain an admission letter from a German
university have to approach the German Embassy or German Consulate, in their vicinity,
along with two complete sets of application papers, the application fee (which is at present
INR 1,100), the letter of admission from the German university, all their original certificates, a
financial proof / statement (which is currently INR 3,50,000), and health certificate. All
students are called for an interview, it takes up to eight weeks to process a visa application,
and results of the application are known only after two months. If a visa is granted, it is
initially valid only for three months. On arrival in Germany, the students will have to visit the
Foreigners Registration Office in the city where the university is located and get the visa
extended for the duration of the study programme.
Future prospects: The new German Immigration Law that came into force on January 1,
2005 has to a great extent cut down on the red tape, and made Germany more attractive both as
Given below are the best ranked Universities in Germany from where you can pursue a
course in engineering.

Studying in India in one of the renowned campuses is not only cost effective but a rewarding
educational experience where you get quality academic inputs along with opportunities for all–
round development. It is important to keep the following points in mind while applying for
graduate courses in India:
• The courses you apply for must be recognised by the appropriate authority e.g., the degree
courses by the University Grant Commission (UGC), professional / technical courses
by the All India Council of Technical Education (AICTE), medical courses by the
Medical Council of India (MCI), dental courses by the Dental Council of India (DCI),
law courses by the Bar Council of India (BCI) and so on. This is essential because most
postgraduate programmes require that you should a graduate from a “recognised”
university or possess a “ recognised” qualification.
• For B.A., B.Sc and B.Com do not limit yourself to the colleges of Delhi University where
the cut- off’s are very high; also apply to renowned colleges in Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore,
Kolkata, Hyderabad, Chandigarh, etc.
• Many colleges have a separate quota for sports and extra curricular activities (ECA)- go
ahead and apply through these quotas, if you are eligible. This year the sports and eca
quota of many Delhi colleges was not filled!
• For professional courses like, Design, Engineering, Hotel Management, Law, Medical
Sciences, Mass Communication etc, apply to all the top campuses and appear for the major
state and national level examinations. This will certainly enhance your choices of getting
the right course at the right campus.
For those desirous of continuing their studies in India there are many educational opportunities
available. Those students who are aiming for an academic programme after class XII and plan
to join a professional course after graduation should seek admission to the best campuses in
the country.

Company Secretaries have been recognised by various enactments as one of the principal
officers of Companies. They act as legal representatives of companies. The knowledge and
training acquired by them make them versatile enough to carry out various functions in the
fields of Finance, Accounts, Legal Administration and Personnel, in addition to their own
responsibilities. Companies having a paid-up share capital of Rs. 2 crore or more are
statutorily required to appoint a full time company secretary (Section 383 - A of the
Company’s Act, 1956) who must be a member of the Institute of Company Secretaries of India
(ICSI), a professional body constituted under the Company Secretaries Act, 1980. Moreover,
the enactment of the Companies Amendment Act 2000 makes it mandatory for companies
which have a paid up capital of Rs. 10 lakh or more to file with the Registrar, a compliance
certificate signed by a CS, thus opening more avenues for company secretaries. All companies
which seek listing on the National Stock Exchange (NSE/Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE)
require to have full time CS.
The Company Secretary course is conducted by the Institute of Company Secretaries of India

According to Swarup Roy, an accountant and a final year student of Cost and Works
Accountancy : “In the present era of cut throat competition, where market dominance is the
key to success, where our industries have to compete with the global giants, and when the
world is gradually turning into a global village, profitability has to be maintained through
decreased costs and not by increasing prices. Efficiency at all levels is required, hence the
importance of Costing and Cost Accounting”.
Whereas in Chartered Accountancy, we study all aspects of accounting, Cost and Works
Accountants specialize in accounting for costs. While financial audits and tax audits are only
performed by Chartered Accountants, both Chartered Accountants and Cost Accountants are
authorized by law to perform cost audits. However, there is a proposal for Cost Accountants to
perform financial audits as well.

benefits to promote international education and make studying in Japan more attractive.
Through scholarships, the opportunity to work part-time, and with comprehensive medical

universities (undergraduate courses), graduate schools, junior colleges, special training
colleges (post-secondary courses) and colleges of technology in Japan. There are about 700
universities in Japan, including national, public and private ones. The length of study in an

Academic Year: The academic year at a Japanese school normally begins in April and ends
the following March. Some classes are run year-round, but classes are usually divided into
semesters, lasting through the first semester (April - September) or the second semester
(October - March). Students normally enroll in April, but some universities permit students to
enter at a different time, such as in October.
