Dear Expert

Can you tell me what is the working rights for international student like me, who are from Pakistan. I am Planning to do one course from Institute, which is graduate diploma in maritime engagement. How many hours I will be allowed to work in a week and what about earning sales job for international student as I have 5 years of sales experience.

Course timing is 6 pm to 9 pm

Regards
Shaiz bin Qamar

Hi - I understand from previous posts on this topic you will not be allowed to work in your first year, but Ricky knows a lot more than me

Yes, George is right!

During your first full year (12 months) of study you are not allowed to work and will not get a work permit (and will be expelled if caught working without a permit).

From the second year onwards you are allowed to work 10 hours a week.

PS What exactly is Maritime Engagement about?

Cheers
