Coming home after studying abroad or not?

ITT – It is difficult to answer the question “Coming home after studying abroad or not?”, because there are too many factors affecting this issue.

The profession you study

The profession you study is very important in making the decision whether coming home after studying abroad or not, because this is the first factor to consider you should look for a chance to settle in the country or back to Vietnam.

Those who study too “sublime” disciplines such as Atomic Physics or Theoretical Physics probably should not go home yet. Or in Nursing, if you work as a nurse in Germany, Canada, Japan…, it will be very easy to settle down, find a stable job and good income.

As for a number of students studying Economics, the country is really developing and needs good experts in this field. Moreover, finding employment related to this field abroad is quite difficult, so returning to Vietnam is the most appropriate decision.

The goal of your life

Perhaps according to Vietnamese culture and habits, sometimes the time to study abroad is too early for you to set goals for life, but that should be the time you need to outline the steps to the future.

Would you like to take trips across five continents? Or do you wish to work in a large corporation in the Silicon Valley? Or are you planning to start up a business in Vietnam? Think carefully about the goals to know whether coming home after studying abroad or not.

However, you might also stay for a few more years or move to some other country to enrich your life experience.

Perspective on life

This is a completely emotional element. Would you like to have a new life or return to your previous life back home? If you only like pure Vietnamese food, cannot live away from family, relatives, friends…, then you will be very difficult to integrate with life in the country after graduation.

On the other hand, life in a foreign country may be very suitable for you if you really have high adaptability in culture, satisfaction in social security, appreciating the quality of education… Going in through these reflections, you will automatically understand whether coming home after studying abroad or not.
