Are there good opportunities for placements and real project work after completing a master's abroad in UK/Canada?

Yes, pursuing a master's abroad can offer strong opportunities for placements and real project work, especially in Canada and the UK.

- Canada: Programs like Mitacs Accelerate connect master's students with industry partners for paid, real-world projects. Some research internships may also be available to eligible master's students.
- UK: The Graduate Route visa currently allows international graduates to stay and work for up to 2 years after their master's, giving time to gain practical experience. Many universities offer internships, placements, and industry collaborations.

Employment rates for international graduates are generally high but can be slightly lower than for domestic students. Visa and post-study work policies are subject to change.
