Highlight how your research experiences relate to each country’s academic style and opportunities:

- UK: Focuses on specialized, in-depth research, usually through a 1-year master's with an independent dissertation.
- USA: Offers a broader, interdisciplinary approach with 2-year master's programs combining coursework and research, plus collaborative projects.
- Australia: Blends theory with practical application in 1.5 - 2 year programs, often integrating industry-linked research.

You can also mention post-study work options: the UK Graduate Route (2 years), USA OPT (up to 12 months, longer for STEM), and Australia’s Temporary Graduate Visa (2 - 4 years, depending on qualification).

This shows you understand the unique academic and post-study environments of each country.
