There are many reasons why study abroad programs are becoming so popular. For most students, the appeal lies in gaining a combination of high-quality education and experiencing a new culture, and adapting to a global mindset. It is also true that students who have studied abroad have better employment prospects at the end of the rainbow. Indian education system might be very thorough but the rote learning and marks hankering has brought down the standard of education imparted in our universities, which often become political playgrounds. Studying abroad is an exciting challenge that often leads to improved career opportunities and a broader understanding of the way the world works. The type of experience you have during your time abroad will vary hugely depending on where you go, so make sure to pick a study destination based on your own personal interests as well as the country’s academic reputation.

Studying abroad in all leads to the following:

• Better understanding on the global scenario and broader perspective.
• Greater employment opportunities.
• Cultural assimilation leads to personality development. Plus, one usually picks up another language abroad which is a great asset.
• If your acumen allows you to get a scholarship, then education abroad is lighter on the pocket.
• Building an international professional network.
