2016年澳洲移民政策变化增加 Specialist education qualification 分,stem-ict 好移民

:warning: 2026 现行提示 [核 2026-08-19]:本帖 2016 年预告的两件事,一件落地并且加分翻了一倍,另一件已经关门换成了别的路。

  • STEM/ICT 加分落地了,而且现在是 10 分(不是当年传的 5 分)。官方名称就是本帖标题里那个 Specialist education qualification,现在是 189/190/491 打分表上的固定一项。
  • 本帖开头说的"2016 年 11 月推出的企业家移民类别"是 188 签证 Entrepreneur stream整个 BIIP(商业创新与投资项目,188/888)已于 2024 年 7 月 31 日停收新申请,这条路目前没有了。接棒的是国家创新签证 National Innovation visa(subclass 858),但它不是"企业家签证"的换号 —— 它是邀请制的杰出人才永居签证,门槛和逻辑完全不同。换号和关停是两件事,这里是关停后另起一条

2026 现行:Specialist education qualification 怎么拿这 10 分

要求(三个条件全中才算)

  1. 学位必须是澳洲教育机构颁发的研究型硕士(Masters by research)或博士
  2. 该学位包含至少两个学年的相关领域学习;
  3. 专业落在下面这份官方指定的 STEM / 特定 ICT 领域清单里。

得分:10 分。

官方指定的领域清单(现行打分表原文照译,分三大组):

  • 自然与物理科学(Natural and physical sciences):生物科学、化学科学、地球科学、数学科学、自然与物理科学、其他自然与物理科学、物理与天文
  • 信息技术(Information technology):计算机科学、信息系统、信息技术、其他信息技术
  • 工程及相关技术(Engineering and related technologies):航空航天工程与技术、土木工程、电气与电子工程及技术、工程及相关技术、测绘工程、制造工程与技术、船舶工程与技术、机械与工业工程及技术、其他工程及相关技术、过程与资源工程

判断自己的课程算不算,官方指的是查 CRICOS 上该课程的领域归类。

三个最容易搞错的地方

  • 必须是澳洲机构颁的学位。境外的 STEM 博士拿不到这 10 分(但可以拿"教育水平"那一栏博士的 20 分)。
  • 必须是研究型。授课型硕士(Masters by coursework)不算,哪怕专业对口。
  • 这 10 分和"教育水平"那 20 分不冲突,是打分表上两个独立的项,可以叠加。

2026 现行:打分表上和 STEM/ICT 相关的其他几项

项目 分值
澳洲教育机构博士,或境外同等水平博士 20
澳洲教育机构学士及以上,或境外同等水平学士及以上 15
澳洲教育机构文凭或技工资格 10
Specialist education qualification(澳洲研究型硕士/博士 + STEM/ICT 领域,≥2 学年) 10
Professional Year(会计 / ICT-计算机 / 工程,邀请前 48 个月内完成) 5
满足 Australian study requirement 5
在偏远地区学习(Study in regional Australia) 5

(学历一栏只按最高学历计一次。)

沿革:这条政策是怎么走过来的

  • 2016 年 2 月(本帖写作时):政策还是预告状态,流传的说法是"STEM 和 ICT 的博士与研究型硕士将获额外加分"。
  • 2016 年 11 月:企业家类别(188 签证 Entrepreneur stream)落地。
  • 2016 年 12 月前后:Specialist education qualification 正式进入打分表。
  • 2019 年 11 月 16 日:技术移民打分表大改(配偶加分、单身加分入表,489 停收由 491 接替)。Specialist education qualification 保留。
  • 2024 年 7 月 31 日BIIP(188/888)停收新申请,含 Entrepreneur stream。已递交未决的申请可申请退费。
  • 2024 年 12 月National Innovation visa(subclass 858)上线,取代原 Global Talent 路径,成为"杰出人才"这一线的现行永居签证。
  • 2026 年 8 月:Specialist education qualification 现行分值 10 分

2026 现行:如果你就是冲着"技术好、学历好、英语好"来的

本帖当年那句"三好学生好移民:专业好,学历好,英语好",2026 年仍然是对的,但这三项现在各自值多少分要重算:

  • 英语好:Proficient(雅思 4 个 7 或等值)+10 分,Superior(4 个 8 或等值)+20 分。2025 年 8 月 7 日起认可的考试和分数换过一整套,别拿旧对照表算 → 澳洲移民局认可的英语考试 Which English language tests are accepted by DIBP
  • 学历好:博士 20 分;澳洲研究型硕士/博士且专业在 STEM/ICT 清单上,再叠 10 分。
  • 专业好:职业必须在现行清单上。189 走 MLTSSL;190/491 走 MLTSSL + STSOL + ROL;482(Skills in Demand)和 186 直入类走的是 CSOL(Core Skills Occupation List),那是另一张表。清单是分签证类别的,不是全国一张

注意层级:加分是联邦规则(内政部发的,全国一套);州担保另有各州自己的资格线和职业清单,两者不通用。想靠州担保补那 5 分(190)或 15 分(491),要去该州官网看,不是看内政部页面。


以下为 2016 年原帖内容,作历史对照。当年的预告口径勿当现行规则。

2016年11月澳洲将推出一个新的企业家移民类别,鼓励全世界创新型技术管理人才移民澳洲。(2026 注:该类别为 188 签证 Entrepreneur stream,已随 BIIP 于 2024-07-31 停收新申请。

The new Entrepreneur visa will give talented individuals, with creative vision and financial support, the opportunity to develop their ideas in Australia.

随后 2016年12月澳洲将推出有利于 STEM(science, technology, engineering and mathematics 科学,技术,工程,数学) and ICT(信息和通信技术)毕业生的移民政策,这些专业将有额外加分,从当前发布的信息看,额外加分政策主要面向这类专业的博士和硕士学历。(2026 注:已落地,官方名称 Specialist education qualification,现行 10 分,限澳洲机构的研究型硕士/博士。

Postgraduate research graduates with STEM and ICT qualifications will benefit from enhanced pathways to permanent residency. Plus, Australian doctorate level and master by research qualifications in STEM and specific ICT or related fields will qualify for additional points under the points tested General Skilled Migration program.

A report by consulting firm PwC called ‘A Smart Move: Future-proofing Australia’s Workforce’ found that:

  • 44% or 5.1 million current Australian jobs are at risk from digital disruption during the next 20 years
  • 75% of the fast growing occupations require STEM skills
  • Innovation and STEM education are key to future growth
  • Australia will see a $57.4bn increase in GDP if we shift just 1% of our workforce into STEM roles.

ICT is a similar story. A report by the Australian Computer Society (ACS) and Deloitte Access Economics shows that Australia needs a further 100,000 ICT workers over the next five years, but despite this demand, the number of graduates with ICT qualifications has declined significantly since the early 2000s.

2026 注:上面这两组数字来自 2015-2016 年的 PwC 与 ACS/Deloitte 报告,是当年的论证材料,不是现行统计。

总结: 三好学生好移民:专业好,学历好,英语好。三好学生也好就业。

AI 能帮你做哪几步

  • 让 AI 把你的课程对到那份领域清单上:把学位全称、CRICOS 课程代码、学习年限给它,让它回答"落在自然科学/信息技术/工程哪一组、够不够两个学年"。三组里最容易看走眼的是"信息系统"和"其他信息技术"这类模糊归类。
  • 让 AI 算总分:把年龄、英语、工作年限、学历、澳洲学习、配偶情况一次给全,让它按现行打分表逐项列出并求和。要求它每一项都标出依据的表格行,方便你回官网核。
  • 让 AI 反推缺口:目标 EOI 分数减去当前分,让它列出可行的补分动作和各自需要的时间(考英语 vs 攒工作年限 vs 读 Professional Year)。
  • AI 判断不了"研究型还是授课型"。这要看你毕业证/成绩单上的正式学位名称,以及学校的官方说明,不能靠 AI 猜。
  • AI 记的分值大概率是旧的。Specialist education qualification 早年是 5 分,2019 年打分表大改后不少数值都动过。任何分值回上面那个 points-table 链接核。

转 facebook 上的一篇介绍:

Australian Prime Minister has made two major initiatives in Australia’s immigration policy. Now students studying the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and ICT (Information and Communication Technology) have a way to apply for permanent residence in Australia. There is also a new Entrepreneur Visa introduced that will be implemented from December 2016.

How the change in Immigration Rules can make Immigration to Australia Easier for Students

The initiative for STEM students is for those who are doing their masters and PhD from research institutes in Australia. The field of ICT and STEM is quite broad and hence, a lot of student migration is expected for completing their qualifications in Australia, as it gives them extra points in the skilled migration points test.

Since the change in the point system will be implemented accordingly at the end of the year, it cannot be said for sure of how many extra points STEM students will receive to migrate to Australia. However, studying in Australia is definitely going to make their immigration process easier.

This change in rules is also going to encourage brilliant students from all over the world to come and study in Australia. This is a win-win situation as it will increase the cultural diversity in the country and these students will get the advantage of studying in the world class education system of Australia.

A glance at the fine print

Although the change in rules of immigration to the country is a good thing, it won’t have too much of an effect until the other parts in the migration process like the skilled migration list, the skills assessment requirements, and the occupational ceilings are changed as well to accommodate the new changes.

  • People who want to immigrate to Australia need to get a nomination from one of the professions in the skills development list. While the list contains many professions related to STEM, there are several that it does not have and this may cause problems for the students related to those fields.
  • The Occupational ceilings mean that there is a quota for every field every year. But people from fields like IT and engineering are restricted to migrate because the quota is filled every year.
  • The skills assessment requirements of the current immigration policy in Australia require that the skilled professionals have paid work experience in their fields, and this can be difficult for people who are still involved in research and studies.

Until the things mentioned above are revised, the change in immigration rules is not going to have much positive effect on the overall migration process.

The new Entrepreneur Visa

This visa will grant new entrepreneurs temporary residence in Australia if they come to the country with a new and innovative business idea that has lots of potential for acceptance and growth in the Australian market.

The visa requires the applicant to have strong financial backing from a third party or have a state nomination. This is a provisional visa and getting a permanent visa depends on the success of the business idea.

好像和国内的STEM学生没什么关系啊,必须要在澳洲读STEM的学生… 这样说来国内技术移民的难度不是更大了嘛。好悲伤的故事…

只是对澳洲毕业的STEM学生有加分而已

去澳洲读工科留下来的机会大,已经在澳洲读工科的学生机会来了。

非澳洲留学生虽然不能加分,但理工科职业肯定继续成为移民热门行业。不仅是澳洲,加拿大,新西兰,美国都一样。

New visa options for ICT and STEM graduates have been announced following Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull’s recent National Innovation and Science agenda.

In December 2015 Turnbull pledged that the agenda will “help create a modern, dynamic, 21st century economy for Australia”. A proposal to boost innovation through visas announced two new initiatives:

  • Enhanced permanent residency pathways for international postgraduate research students with information and communications technology (ICT) and science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) qualifications; and

  • A new Entrepreneur visa designed to attract business talent from overseas.

Why are STEM and ICT skills in the spotlight?

The focus on STEM and ICT is due to two key points:

  1. The expanding skills gap in these subject areas; and
  2. The realisation that these skills are vital across a range of sectors.

The Australian Bureau of Statistics has reported that STEM skills jobs grew at around 1.5 times the rate of other jobs in recent years – by 14% compared to 9% between 2006 and 2011. Yet, participation by university students in STEM related subjects is not keeping pace with the needs of the economy and is low in comparison to similar economies .

A report by consulting firm PwC called ‘A Smart Move: Future-proofing Australia’s Workforce’ found that:

  • 44% or 5.1 million current Australian jobs are at risk from digital disruption during the next 20 years
  • 75% of the fast growing occupations require STEM skills
  • Innovation and STEM education are key to future growth
  • Australia will see a $57.4bn increase in GDP if we shift just 1% of our workforce into STEM roles.

ICT is a similar story. A report by the Australian Computer Society (ACS) and Deloitte Access Economics shows that Australia needs a further 100,000 ICT workers over the next five years, but despite this demand, the number of graduates with ICT qualifications has declined significantly since the early 2000s.

Opportunities for ‘best and brightest’

Australia needs a workforce that is equipped with the ICT and STEM skills necessary to fuel its digitally-driven economic growth. The National Innovation and Science agenda pledges to ‘link Australia to other innovative economies and change the visa system to attract more entrepreneurial and research talent from overseas’.

The new Entrepreneur visa will give talented individuals, with creative vision and financial support, the opportunity to develop their ideas in Australia.

Postgraduate research graduates with STEM and ICT qualifications will benefit from enhanced pathways to permanent residency. Plus, Australian doctorate level and master by research qualifications in STEM and specific ICT or related fields will qualify for additional points under the points tested General Skilled Migration program.

When will these visas be available?

The Government plans to introduce the Entrepreneur visa in November 2016 and the enhanced permanent visa pathway for STEM postgraduate research graduates will be implemented in December 2016.

配额不变的话,这些留学生会占用配额,对中国大陆申请人不利。

9月10日,教师节起,澳洲技术移民将对澳洲毕业的理学,技术,工学,数学,信息通信技术领域的硕士及博士研究型学位额外加 5 分。

Points tested programme changes

We are also making changes to the points test for the skilled migration programme. From 10 September 2016, five additional points will be available for students from Australian institutions with doctorate-level and masters by research qualifications in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and information and communication technology fields.
