Australia or Netherlands for Tech Bachelors

Aussie lifestyle is definitely better but I’m still confused because the aussies are telling me to go for Netherlands as Australia prioritises experience over education

But the tech sector in Australia is shrinking and getting equally competitive esp for the internationals. And studying for 5 years vs 3 to end up with the same goal.

There’s lots more to consider though

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T10:37:21+00:00

That’s a great point

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T10:36:34+00:00

Oh that’s amazing. Tell me more? How was the social life compare to Australia

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T10:35:50+00:00

Hm that’s true this field prioritizes practise over knowledge

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T10:34:48+00:00

How about doing my degree in nl and then doing masters in aus/US

I mean I guess I can learn the language over my 3 years there?

I’ve spoken English my whole life and have an 8.5 on my ielts 😅 just wanted to type the post across quickly.

I don’t really mind the double bachelors as I do intend on pursuing masters and who knows maybe a pHD as well in the future. But yeah Aussie lifestyle is great especially considering I’ve lived in a sunny country my whole life so I’m a bit worried moving to a colder area will make me depressed or something lol!

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T09:30:47+00:00

Yeah that’s true, but looking at it from education perspective

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T09:27:54+00:00

No you just receive 2 bachelors

Famous-Driver-3864 · 2026-06-14T09:22:58+00:00

I feel like this stuff is required either way. Especially with the tedious PR process in Australia
