The outflow of students grew very rapidly in the last few years, especially the postgraduate students from India are choosing to migrate from India to study abroad. It should be noted that the countries with the highest-quality education are not necessarily the ones with higher wages. Therefore, we need to explore whether it is quality of higher education or the maximum wage levels that signifies the direction of student flows. The purpose is to understand the elements affecting students’ decisions on migration as for why so many Indians are choosing to go abroad for education. Here we go:

 

Lack of quality– The students find few top-quality programmes and institutions when it comes to higher education.

Growing competition- The challenge of securing admission in them becomes more daunting each year.

Rising income- Even though the income levels among middle-class families in India have raised, the education capacity and facility is still limited.

Reservation Policy- It reduces the availability of seats and choices for the general category students for higher studies.

The value of the foreign universities in India– The foreign degrees translate into better employability in the local market.

Favorable culture of research- It provides better access to the top notch technology and the faculty members.

There is a necessity to come up with a remedy to stop this migration and that asks for building up high-quality education at the national institutions and creating better opportunities for the students to obtain excellent training at home. The mark of significant changes in India’s academic culture and education system, to ensure that meritocracy gets the priority at all levels, might resolve the issue in the long run.

M.I.P.S. is a one stop solution of providing postgraduate courses in distance education.
