Hi,

I recently graduated with a BA in archaeology and am thinking of continuing my studies in either museums or archives. I believe you either are Canadian or have worked in Canadian museums (sorry if I'm wrong) and I had a question about college vs university programs when it comes to museum studies. If you can't answer, no worries.

When it comes to employment, what difference does it make between having a college diploma or a master's in museum studies? Are there some jobs you can only get with a master's? Or are opportunities the same? Would both programs teach similar skills? I know the job market in museums and archives is rough and if a master's will get me further that's probably what I'll go with. I also know there's several diploma/certificate programs offered by universities and am unsure of where those would rank in comparison to a college diploma or master's degree.

Another issue is the main masters programs I know of are in BC and Toronto, places that are incredibly expensive to live rn, so if a college program will get me just as far, some of those schools are in cities with lower cost of living.

Thanks!

first of all; you're right I am Canadian and a graduate of a Canadian undergrad program. but my MA is from the UK.

secondly, for non-Canadians; college in Canada has a few meanings. One is very similar to the US - a particular grouping of students in a university. But the more common one is a bit harder to explain. It used to be that 'working' careers were from colleges [i.e. nursing vs. doctor; lumber jack vs. forester, etc] but these days the lines are more blurred. Colleges are seen by some academic fields as 'lesser' than universities but they actually just fill a different need.

thirdly; it depends on the job. For my job [Executive Director] you do not necessarily need a museum/gallery background but imo... you do need that. If your interest is in collections care, a college diploma in specifically collections care is very good - often better than a generalized masters because it shows dedication in that one area. If you are more interested in exhibition same thing - colleges are more likely to have hands-on mounting classes which will make you an asset.

If you want to work front of house - tours, guest interaction, education - university degrees will be seen as better because you are more likely to be academically inclined and things like that. You won't be unable to get a job like that with college, but given our sector, it will be very very hard.

I believe, but you would have to check, that UofT's ISchool has an online or distance Masters for museums you might want to check out. You could also go abroad like I did. University of Leicester [my alma mater] has a very good distance course though the fees for international students might make in-person just as hard. They're entry requirements for Canadians at a 4 point school is a cGPA of 3. Nice and attainable.

Its also worth noting that you do not need to have museum-focused degrees so long as you have work experience. Lets say your UG arch was focused on Coast Salish archaeology, a side focus on public history and volunteer or intern work experience in museums will make you more attractive to the Museum of Anthropology at UBC than my CV which has no native focus at all.

There's a lot of historic workers on Tumblr, I'll tag a few and hope a few others chime in to give you advice.

Action is needed to show nurses of colour that their contribution is valued and their lives matter, as opposed to words, nursing leaders have warned on the third annual Windrush Day.

On this day in 1948, the first group of people arrived in Essex from the Caribbean on the Empire Windrush cruise ship, pictured above, answering the UK’s call for public sector workers following the Second World War.

“There is still so much to do to level the playing field for people of colour in the UK" Trevor Sterling

Many of these passengers and the other members of the Windrush Generation – along with their descendants – were or would go on to become nurses, helping to create the National Health Service.

The government announced in 2018 that 22 July would become an annual holiday to celebrate the British-Caribbean community and to thank those who helped to rebuild Britain after the war.

The designation came in the wake of the Windrush Scandal in which stories of Commonwealth citizens being wrongfully detained, deported and denied their rights came to light.

Windrush Day this year is particularly poignant as it coincides with a time of national and international reflection on the racial inequalities in our society brought to stark attention by Covid-19 and the Black Lives Matters movement.

Exclusive: BME nurses ‘feel targeted’ to work on Covid-19 wards

NHS leaders set out new measures to protect BME staff in pandemic

Professor Greta Westwood, chief executive of the Florence Nightingale Foundation, said more needed to be done to “redress the current imbalance” in nursing in terms of race.

While 20% of the overall NHS nursing and midwifery workforce in England is from a black, Asian or ethnic minority (BAME) background, the percentage reduces to 4% for director-level nursing posts.

“It saddens me today to see that our BAME staff, whose own ancestors helped to build the NHS, still feel that they have to break through glass ceilings to succeed,” said Professor Westwood.

Greta Westwood

The foundation launched the Windrush Leadership Programme to help BAME nurses at bands 5 to 6 reach senior leadership positions and now also runs Windrush Leadership Scholarships.

Some of the BAME nurses and midwives who applied to the programme had been in their band 5 roles for more than 20 years.

“Since its foundation, the Windrush Leadership Programme has helped BAME staff find their voice and rightfully claim their place as senior leaders in the NHS,” added Professor Westwood.

“I urge my fellow NHS and other healthcare leaders to redress the current imbalance. We as the foundation will continue to foster this talent, but it is our collective responsibility to work together. Action not words create change.”

One Windrush scholar, Deborah Hylton, said when she joined the programme, she was working as a band 6 health visitor and was struggling with “self-doubt” after being continuously turned down for band 7 roles.

Inspired by her sister and sister-in-law who both came to the UK from the Caribbean when she was 13 and trained as nurses, Ms Hylton joined the nursing profession as a mature student with two young children to “give back to my community”.

She said the “confidence and skills” she gained through the course helped her to secure her current role as a lecturer in children’s nursing at London South Bank University.

“I am now in a position where I can encourage student nurses from all ethnic groups that nothing is impossible. I am able to stand in front of them as their lecturer and role model and make them aware of another career direction that nursing can offer,” said Ms Hylton.

Meanwhile, staff from four London hospitals will tonight mark Windrush Day by gathering outside their buildings at 5pm and taking a knee to show solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement.

The protest will be observed by workers at St Thomas Hospital, Kings College Hospital, South London and Maudsley Hospitals, and Lewisham University Hospital.

The action is being organised by Unite the union at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust, and Royal College of Nursing Inner South East London.

Mark Boothroyd, Unite branch secretary for Guy's and St Thomas', said: “The NHS has the same problems of systemic racism as every other part of society.

“With over 50% of nursing staff in London being from BME backgrounds and directly affected by this, its important staff can show their support for Black Lives Matter, and push their own employers to make changes to tackle the ongoing issue of racism in the NHS.”

The RCN is also using Windrush Day to urge the Home Office to grant indefinite leave to remain to all international health and care workers who have worked in the UK during the pandemic.

“The NHS has the same problems of systemic racism as every other part of society" Mark Boothroyd

Dame Donna Kinnair, RCN chief executive and general secretary, said: “The best way to honour the legacy of Windrush Day is to ensure no nurse, or health and care worker, who trained overseas, and helped in this pandemic, feels alien in this country.

“Granting automatic, indefinite leave to remain to international health and care workers who helped tackle this virus should be instinctive.

“The services and support that they provide, though brought to the fore through this pandemic, have always been essential. They are, and always will be, key workers.”

More than one in 10 of the total registered nursing workforce in the UK come from overseas, according to the Nursing and Midwifery Council. As of September 2019, 77,065 registered nurses came from outside the European Economic Area.

However, international nursing staff must wait five years before they can apply for indefinite leave to remain and are required to take a test to prove their Britishness before they are granted it.

Donna Kinnair

Another organisation demanding action over words is the Mary Seacole Trust which exists to educate the public about the life of the British-Jamaican nursing pioneer who cared for soldiers during the Crimean War, working against both racism and sexism.

The trust oversaw the creation of a Mary Seacole statue in 2016 in the grounds of St Thomas' Hospital, becoming the first statue in the UK in honour of a named black woman.

To mark Windrush Day, the organisation is calling for a national “black plaque scheme” to educate the public on UK black history.

It has written to the prime minister and London mayor to request that plaques are put up next to all British statues to explain the historical context, with the wording decided in collaboration with members of the black community.

Trevor Sterling, chair of the Mary Seacole Trust, said: “Windrush Day has a huge significance for me, my family and countless other black people in the UK.

Trevor Sterling

“Since the Empire Windrush docked at Tilbury in 1948, we have been contributing to our communities in Britain, and yet like Mary Seacole, our contributions are not fully recognised.

“There is still so much to do to level the playing field for people of colour in the UK, as seen most recently in the disproportionate number of BAME coronavirus deaths.

“Education about black British history must be central to all policy changes. If we are to truly address racism in the UK, we must first educate British citizens."

Mo had a dream

20th September 2023

The youngest student at the workshop; 2 months old. Son of Brenda, Community MH nurse, he is just 2 months old. He’s called Zion. And very advanced, of course.

At breakfast today I decided to have avocado. Because I could, because it’s good for me, and because we normally eat quite a bit of it at home.

Our menu here tends to be based on common Ugandan everyday foods, hence yesterday’s liver and cooking banana and today’s avocado.

Ewan began the day’s programme with a snowball exercise. 2-3 people discuss first, then they join another group to become 6 and so on. Each time the group has to decide on its ‘top 3’ – in this case, their top three things learnt as a result of the partnership with Jamie’s Fund. Great to read their results. I was not surprised, but I was moved, to hear mention of loving our patients, and other similar sentiments 

Long ago in Malawi, I was surprised and upset to find that the PrivateNotForProfit hospitals, which were mostly faith based, wouldn’t care for any patients with mental illness. While in government service we were developing community mental health care and reducing the population of the mental hospital, the mission hospitals were saying “We don’t do this.”

We asked a question of the Christian Medical Fellowship in UK as to why should this be? That led to a consultation: “Should faith based health institutions provide mental health services?”

An international conference followed in 1998: Developing Mental Health: a Challenge to the Churches. We brought participants from five continents - mental health workers, their managers and their bishops, and had a wonderful week in a conference centre in England. 

By then I had a dream: that faith-based hospitals, especially in low-income countries, would develop community mental health services, and offer love and commitment to this group of people who are so often stigmatised, rejected and outcast.

Working in Jamie’s Fund in Uganda, my dream has come true. Our young colleagues here have a shining vision to make things better in mental health, and they are transforming lives. They also love to learn and we are having such a good week with them.

Second on today’s agenda I presented Trauma Matters, prepared by our good friend Helen, a Liverpool psychiatrist. We were all looking forward to her first visit to Uganda – and so was she, but late in the day illness stopped that happening. Interesting presenting other people’s powerpoint! But I already knew that she and I had were of the same tribe, had concerns and values in common, and that it was a privilege to present her work. 

After lunch our colleague Sudaat told us about a new syndrome “Shake Shake”. Every so often these slightly odd presentations crop up, often in boarding schools, looking like some weird neurological disease. As far as I know, they never are, but are usually due to underlying stress and the girls ‘catch’ it from each other. You won’t be surprised to hear that in ShakeShake the girls’ legs shake.

Some of our colleagues had asked for screening tools to give them a straightforward and speedy way to assess those patients in medical clinics who come with physical symptoms but appear to have nothing wrong with them. So we talked about screening principles and got them doing translations of one such tool into local languages. Much hilarity ensued. Keeping control was like herding cats.  

We took a group photo with the banner of the the Diversity Foundation behind the group.  Diversity Travel have been very generous in their support to Jamie’s Fund and have paid about half the cost of this work shop for which we are very grateful..

Ewan enjoys data. Don’t drown in data, turn it into information!  Kuule from Bwindi and Lamet from Mukono, both very able and visionary mental health clinicians, joined Ewan to show how it could be done. Kuule and Ewan have recently spent a considerable time preparing a research paper on this very subject, which shows how the number of patients attending mental health clinics around Bwindi has increased as more clinics have been opened as a result of training of clnical staff  in basic mental health care, sponsored by JF.  The only officially required figures are for the clinic attendances rather than how an individual attends.  Just looking at the number of attendances doesn't tell you about the size of pool of patients or if individuals are attending regularly for follow up. You need this to be able to manage your service effectively.

Supper as usual and early bed.

Nursing Courses in Australia for Indian Students in 2025

The study found that Australia has become one of the preferred study destinations for International students interested in studying nursing. Australia has a pool of world-class universities, advanced healthcare facilities, and wide clinical experience; which ideal for Indian students who would like to build their careers as a nurse. The global increase in the requirement for professional healthcare workers makes nursing a lucrative profession; education and training offered in Australia are internationally accredited bearing in mind that the courses are very challenging.

As a result, in this blog, we will try to consider the following perspectives of studying nursing courses in Australia preferable for Indian students: ranking of the universities offering nursing courses, structure of the program, job opportunities after, and some advice regarding studying and living in Australia.

Why Study Nursing in Australia?

1. High-Quality Education and Global Recognition

Education in the Australian system is widely recognized for its quality. Overseas universities intending to provide nursing courses have to get affiliated with the Australian Nursing And Midwifery Accreditation Council (ANMAC) and their degrees are recognized around the world. Having a nursing degree from Australia helps students to be cognitive with the academic theories, psychomotor skills, and health care professional-patient values systems that are accepted in society. Graduates can be employed as registered nurses immediately in Australia and also in other countries such as the UK, USA, Canada, and other parts of the world.

2. State-of-the-Art Healthcare Facilities

The country boasts some of the best standard healthcare facilities worldwide. Owing to the diverse nature of civilization and the role of the nursing students nations and developed countries offer the opportunities to apply skills in different hospitals, clinics, and other healthcare facilities that are well equipped with the best modern technology and medical practices. The practical component will enable you to comprehend the practicum of the profession and acquire functional skills.

3. Diverse Specializations

Nursing is a versatile profession and one of the most popular areas of health care where a variety of opportunities is given for the nurse’s specialization like pediatric, mental health, aged care, critical and community health nursing, etc. It is easy for a student to find his or her specialization in an Australian university because these universities offer some specialization areas in their programs to allow the student to fulfill his or her dreams and aspirations.

4. Post-Study Work Opportunities

Australia offers international students wide opportunities for post-study work. After any nursing degree, Indian students can apply for a Temporary Graduate Visa (subclass 485) that lets them work in Australia for 2 to 4 years depending on the level of the qualification. It provides good hands-on practice and broad employment opportunities locally and internationally.

5. Pathway to Permanent Residency

Another exciting factor that makes nursing a popular course to undertake in Australia is the chance to get PR after the course. Skilled human capital is scarce in Australia and there is an increasing demand for skilled professionals in health especially in the nursing profession. Australia has a GSM program through which Indian students who complete their nursing courses and get some practice may be granted PR.

Top Nursing Universities in Australia for Indian Students in 2025

The Bachelor of Nursing is the most typical choice of the program for those students who plan to become nurses. This program normally takes three years to complete and consists of both academic learning and practical experience. They cram several courses which include anatomy and physiology, pharmacology, and patient care. After that, the program has placements, which allow students to participate in clinical practice in hospitals and health facilities.

2. Master of Nursing

However, for students who have done a previous undergraduate degree in a related field, the Master of Nursing is an accelerated program for the nursing profession. It takes about two years to complete and offers postgraduate education in certain fields like psychological health, intensive look for important sufferers, or midwifery. A Master of Nursing makes the learner fit for leadership positions within health facilities.

3. Diploma of Nursing

If students wish to gain their nurse qualification in a shorter amount of time then an option is the Diploma of Nursing. This program normally takes 18 months to 2 years and qualifies students to be enrolled nurses. However, enrolled nurses require supervision from registered nurses, though the diploma can help open more educational paths for the nurse and influence his or her career.

Admission Requirements for Indian Students

Nursing is among the popular fields of study in Australia and for any Indian student to be considered for any nursing course then they must meet some conditions as follows; Most universities require the following:

Academic Requirements: The candidate should have passed Class 12 with a good percentage of groups like biology, chemistry, and English. Some universities may also have prerequisites for their master’s programs as well as offering degrees in either a major or a home country.

English Language Proficiency: To learn English, Indian students are asked to pass English Proficiency Tests such as IELTS and TOEFL. For most of the nursing programs applicants should provide an IELTS score of at least 6.5 with no band being less than 6.

Moreover, new students may be required to provide a police check, medical check-up and immunization may be required in the course of admission particularly while testing their clinical placement.

Career Opportunities for Nursing Graduates in Australia

The Australian Nursing profession is growing fast and Australian graduates in nursing occupy great opportunities abroad. Indian students who complete their nursing degrees in Australia can explore several career paths:

1. Registered Nurse (RN)

Normal duties that will be allocated to you when you become a registered nurse will include patient care, administering drugs, and working with physicians and other health care practitioners. BN-qualified registered nurses can practice in hospitals, nursing homes, clinics, and community and private practice.

2. Specialist Nurse

What’s Behind the Sudden Decline in Immigration to the UK?

With net immigration predicted to fall substantially in 2024, James Bowes digs into the reasons behind this. He highlights the restrictions brought in by the previous government which are now taking effect, causing a drop in the number of care workers and international students.

In 2023, population growth in the UK reached its highest level in half a century, despite deaths outnumbering births. This was because of an unusually high level of net immigration of 685,000 people. And in 2022, net immigration was even higher, at 764,000.

It might be assumed that this high level of immigration is here to stay. But net immigration in 2024 is actually predicted to fall significantly.

Why is this happening? Primarily because new immigration restrictions have resulted in a significant decline in the number of international students and care workers coming to the UK.

To address concerns about record levels of net immigration, the outgoing Conservative government introduced several new restrictions on immigration. Master’s students, care workers and senior care workers can no longer be accompanied by dependants (i.e. their spouse and children under 18). And the salary thresholds for skilled worker visas and family visas have been increased.

The new Labour government have chosen to retain all of these restrictions, although it has suspended plans for a further increase in the salary required to sponsor a family visa.

In the first half of 2024, 428,740 visas were granted (excluding visas for visitors and transit). This represents a 27% reduction from the 584,777 issued during the first half of 2023. Visa application figures show that visa grants are continuing to fall even further, because most of the new immigration restrictions didn’t take effect until March or April 2024.

The largest reductions in immigration have been in the same categories that drove the post-pandemic increase: health and care workers, international students and humanitarian resettlement schemes for people from Hong Kong and Ukraine.

A major factor has been a reduced number of dependants because of the new restrictions. However, there has also been a reduction in the number of main applicants, with 23% fewer students and 78% fewer health and care workers.

The number of dependants of health and care workers is dropping more slowly than the number of main applicants because care workers already here can still sponsor dependants. Nevertheless, visa applications by dependants of health and care workers have continued to fall sharply throughout 2024.

The number of skilled worker visas granted has actually increased, despite the increased salary threshold. This can be explained by an unusually high number of visa applications in April, before the increase in the salary threshold. But by August and September, the number of visa applications was 25% lower than during the same months last year.

Health and care visa grants peaked at 45,071 in the third quarter of 2023. However, by quarter one of 2024 this had dropped to 9,088. This meant 90% fewer care workers and senior care workers, 54% fewer nurses and 37% fewer doctors. In the second quarter of 2024, the number of health and care visas granted dropped a further 28% to 6,564.

The downward trend in the number of care workers pre-dates the ban on dependants. One reason for this is workers being discouraged from moving to the UK in anticipation of the ban. Another reason is that applications now face enhanced scrutiny introduced to address concerns about exploitation and fraud. In response to this fall in care workers, the social care sector has raised concerns about staff shortages.

Many care workers are recruited from amongst immigrants already in the UK, especially former international students and people already working at other care homes. However, international student numbers are falling and therefore it may also become more challenging to recruit care workers from this source.

According to a freedom of information request, 56% of skilled worker visas (excluding health and care) in 2022 were sponsored by employers located in London. Health and care workers are more evenly distributed across the country, with only 17% of immigrants in the sector hired to work in London. Therefore, the fall in health and care workers means that immigration will disproportionately fall outside of London.

This fall in immigration won’t just impact the health and care sector, as dependants have the right to work in any job. The administrative and support services, hospitality and retail sectors in particular have seen a large increase in the number of non-EU national workers that cannot be explained by the number of work visas granted.

What countries are we now seeing less immigration from? The chart below shows the change in the number of skilled worker visas (including health and care) by nationality from the first half of 2023 to the first half of 2024.

Due to a decline in the number of health and care visas, there has been a 58% drop in the number of skilled worker visas granted to Indian national main applicants. However, Indian nationals continue to receive the most skilled worker visas of any nationality.

There has been an 80% or greater drop in the number of visa grants to main applicants from three African nations: Nigeria, Zimbabwe and Ghana. This can be explained by the fact that over 95% of skilled worker visa grants to people from these three nationalities in 2023 were health and care visas.

Since 2023, there has been a 28% reduction in the number of Indian students and a 68% decline in the number of Nigerian students. One reason for this is the ban on dependants; most students bringing dependants came from India and Nigeria. Furthermore, a currency crisis in Nigeria has made study in the UK less affordable.

Many universities are facing financial difficulties as a result of falling international student numbers. 2022/23 HESA data suggests that this impact won’t be evenly distributed amongst universities. Indian and Nigerian nationals made up only 13% of international students at Russell Group universities, but 60% of students at other universities. 25% of international students in the North East were Nigerian, but only 3% in London.

Restrictions have achieved their ambition of significantly reducing immigration. This has been achieved by reducing the number of care workers and international students, which are the categories that drove record levels of immigration in the last few years.

However, the fall in immigration will create new challenges. In particular, care homes will find it more difficult to recruit staff and universities are more likely to face financial problems.

And the reduction in immigration won’t be evenly distributed across the country. Instead, immigration will fall much more sharply outside of London. Immigration from Africa in particular will become much less common.
