Cyprus is a major tourist destination in the Mediterranean. With an advanced, high-income economy and a very high Human Development Index, the Republic of Cyprus is a member of the Francophonie and the Commonwealth since 1961.
Today, Cyprus is a stable, economically advanced member of the European Union and provides a fascinating view of westernized cities and ultra-modern beach resorts residing side-by-side with traditional mountain villages and monasteries. It is quickly becoming a centre for education and research in the region, with continuous incoming investment from international organizations and educational institutions.
Cyprus has a highly developed system of primary and secondary education offering both public and private education. The high quality of instruction can be attributed in part to the fact that nearly 7% of the GDP is spent on education which makes Cyprus one of the top three spenders of education in the EU along with Denmark and Sweden.
The universities and institutions in Cyprus offer high-class study options at both undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Besides these universities there are many institutions that have range of courses.
