Why explore Malta?

A destination is only right when the course fits.

Malta offers English-language higher education through its university and authorised providers. Compare the qualification level, awarding institution and full-time status carefully: degree study and a short English-language course have different academic, residence and employment conditions for international students.

  • English-language university study
  • Mediterranean and European-studies options
  • Academic and specialist professional pathways

Major subjects to research

  • European Studies
  • Accountancy
  • Civil Engineering
  • Computer Science
  • Business

Start with the subjects that interest you, then compare specialisations, course modules, teaching language and practical learning at your shortlisted universities.

Country planning

Entry requirements

  • Undergraduate: accepted secondary qualifications and course/English requirements.
  • Postgraduate: a relevant first degree and the specific programme's academic criteria; professional degrees may have additional subject and recognition requirements.

Country planning

Teaching language & tests

  • English is used in many higher-education programmes, but verify the actual course, accepted language evidence and any clinical or professional-language conditions.

Country planning

Major intakes

  • October is a principal university start; some programmes have February entry or special schedules.
  • Confirm the next call and the earlier deadline applicable to visa-required applicants.

Tuition & fee planning

  • University of Malta's 2026/27 European Studies and Contemporary Mediterranean Studies bachelor's lists EUR 8,500 per academic year for non-EU applicants.
  • Its two-year Master in Accountancy lists EUR 21,600 total, EUR 10,800 per year; these are course-specific examples.
Plan beyond tuition

Include tuition, accommodation, food, transport, health cover, travel, visa charges, deposits and required financial evidence. Confirm currency, annual increases and refund conditions. Do not assume part-time work will fund your education.

Scholarships: a separate timeline

Ask about university, government, programme and research funding. Awards have their own eligibility and closing dates and may cover only part of your costs. No scholarship is guaranteed by a counselling or application service.

Opportunity, with context

Understand the rules before making the move.

Student immigration

  • Check the appropriate Maltese student visa/residence route for the course's qualification level and duration, with authorised-provider admission, resources, insurance and fee evidence.

Work and future scope

  • Eligible higher-education students may work up to 20 hours weekly subject to an employment licence and applicable conditions.
  • Lower-level/language courses have different access and waiting rules; study status is not an unrestricted work permit.

Career outcomes depend on skills, experience, language, recognition, local demand and employer decisions. A degree is not a job, visa or permanent-residence guarantee.
