护士在澳大利亚的地位越来越高，工资从原来的平均35000一年飙升到45,000, 服务时间长一点的拿个60,000-80,000也很平常。

对于很多同学来说，读护理将是未来的趋势。中国也缺少国际化的护理专业人才，北京申办奥运将迫切需要国际型的护理人才。

护理专业也是澳大利亚移民局紧缺专业，

---对于高中毕业的申请人来说任何人读完3年本科课程就可以获得注册护士资格。

---对于在国内有一定护理工作经验的并且是中国认可的注册护士的申请人来说，可以直接申请参加护理注册资格考试。不过雅思需要7.0

随着澳洲和中国人口老年化的越来越严重，护理、护理管理、开设始疗养院、保健中心将是市场的首要任务，也充满有利可图的商机，同学们千万不要一窝蜂去学习会计、IT，选择还是很多的啊!
