It is a significant time to be visiting India, to continue to strengthen the relationship between our two countries. South Australia’s economy is gaining momentum in industries including health, renewable energy, space, agriculture and critical technologies. Indian students can benefit from the growth in these globally relevant and future-facing industries through employment while studying or after graduation and the collaborations our education sector has with industry. They will be set up for careers anywhere in the world. Our close collaboration between education and industry ensures that graduates are ready for the jobs of the future.”

StudyAdelaide Chief Executive Jane Johnston added, “Beyond high-quality education, we take pride in the comprehensive support StudyAdelaide provides international students. Our Employment Connect initiative, launched ahead of this visit on our website, is the most extensive range of employment support programs of any Australian destination, helping students secure meaningful work during and after their studies. Through Job Shop, even before a student enters South Australia, they can apply for a part-time or casual job, ensuring they have access to work opportunities from day one. In just the last two years, over 400 Indian students have participated in our employment-related initiatives.”
