International Studies Consultant Careers


Working with International students or American students has become a common factor for International Studies Consultants. The Untied States is world renowned for having the best education and research funding in the world. One could say they are the ''experts'' of education on a College and University level.

Every year over 1000 foreign students apply at various major Universities across this nation. Some may have more applicants due to their curriculum, however it is safe to-say, Engineering, Medical/Sciences and Business departments are the studies foreign students are applying for. The leading Universities are working with 32 different countries, and nations leading in the search for qualified International Studies Consultants to undertake and plan their respective departments.

Study courses will cover such topics as Aid to Underdeveloped Countries, Gender and International Studies, International Community Planning and Development, How to Negotiate with a Foreign Entity, Child Cultural Perspectives, to name a few. Regardless of the particular studies their ultimate goal is to make sure the transition for students and candidates alike is as smooth and as helpful as possible.

Foreign students are part of this changing ethnic barrier we face today in this field. It also needs to be said that American students are opting to complete a year of studies abroad, whether to enjoy and learn from a different culture to learning their language and local federal requirements to work in that country. Therefore, as an International Studies Consultant the primary function will be assisting international students entering the American Education system, including their involvement with American students entering a foreign school system. Thus, as a consultant one must be well versed in the customs, languages including visa procedures in order to better assist their students.

As a professional Consultant the requirements are prolonged, specialized training to acquire a body of knowledge pertinent to the role to be performed. The members of the profession rather than outsiders determine the standard of education and practice for the Consultant. Being a Consutlant already denotes certain professionalism or specialization brouhgt to the industry. Thereofre, the work involved requires either certification or a successfful track record, the other would be the ability to manage their time and budgets to make this a profiitable and full time job.

An equal amount of time is spent on students who will study in a foreign country. It should also be stated that as an American student the transition is much easier, however there are still many requirements and red tape that need to be addressed as an International student. However, as challenging as the job may be, the fruits of their labor are more than enough to compensate for the hardship. As a Consultant in this field the competition has been pushed up a notch. Having the capacity to juggle more than one student will be noticed and compensated. A Bachelor degree in Business Administration with a few years as a Guidance counselor is highly advised. However a PHD in the appropriate sector with global and International studies is preferred. Salaries will commensurate with experience. Average salary will be from $125,000-$140,000 a year.
