The Western Australia Government has announced that it will be developing a new occupation list for Skilled graduates of WA universities.

High achieving education graduates - PhD, Masters, Honours and other higher degree graduates - will have a pathway to skilled migration, with priority consideration for State Nominated Migration. The introduction of this list is expected to also increase the number of international students choosing to study WA. 

The existing WA Skilled Migration Occupation list will not be affected.

Further information on the proposed new occupation list is available on the WA Government website.
