A Student abroad

After digging things out of the ground and selling them to China, international education has become one of Australia’s largest export industries turning over a billion dollars a year in revenue. Australia has become a centre for international education and cultural experiences. With such a multicultural society Australia is a huge target for students looking to spend a year abroad or continue their studies in one of the many well known Universities. With Australia’s strong white dominated community there are many different attitudes and thoughts in regard to international students and their place in the country. Australians have a well known reputation for being racist against people from non anglo backgrounds. this has been seen in various race riots including the Cronulla Australia day riots in 2006 and more recently the bashing of Indian exchange students in 2010-2011.
