"It is easier to go to Australia for study than for work" - how to say?
I was talking to a Japanese friend this morning who is researching options for coming to Australia, and after our talk, I realised that the summary of our discussion could be expressed as, "It is easier to go to Australia for study than for work". I am not exactly sure how to say this in Japanese - but I have given it a go.

オーストラリアに仕事のためのより、勉強のためのほうが行やすいです。

よろしくお願いしますOn reflection, I wonder if this might be better?
オーストラリアに仕事するためにより、勉強するためにのほうが行きやすいです。

オーストラリアに仕事するためにより、勉強するためにのほうが行きやすいです。

Answer

There are various ways of saying it. I would say: 
オーストラリアへは、仕事のためより勉強のためのほうが行くのが簡単です。
仕事のためより、勉強のためのほうがオーストラリアに行きやすいです。
仕事のためにオーストラリアへ行くより、勉強のために行くほうが簡単です。
*easy to go = 行きやすい、行くのが簡単だ、行くのが楽だ、etc, so I would choose the appropreate way of saying it depending on the situation.

I hope this was helpful.

Answer

Your sentence is correct. It just needs to add き in 行きやすい.

Reading what you mention, I guess what you mean with your English sentence would be also translated
オーストリアには仕事より留学で行くほうが簡単です。
