  • Trends in Internationalization of Higher Education in India
    Trends in Internationalization of Higher Education in India Foreword he Prime Minister, from the ramparts of Red Fort on 15th August this year, exhorted Indians to think proactively on several fronts. Among them was the question -- why can’t India be an exporter of education. That is indeed a new thought. Even while talking about globalization and internationalization of higher education, we do not think in terms of “exporting” education or Teducation services since we tend to connect exports with commodities and not with services. But it is time to start doing so, specially in higher education, because India has the potential to become a global hub in this field. Students from south-east Asian nations and African sub-continent have already started heading towards our shores but the numbers are still small. As the figures in this report show, we are nowhere near where we should be in terms of attracting students to our institutes. It is also a reality that our institutes already have enough Indian students to take care of. But the agenda of internationalization still needs active encouragement and support because it helps institutes to become more outward looking. The presence of students from different global cultures and environments helps both students and faculty in domestic institutions to gain from the experience which these foreign students bring. The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) and the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) have come together to bring out this first joint report on “Trends in Internationalisation of Higher Education in India 2014”. India needs to be promoted more as a destination for higher education.
