International India

India is booming.  The Indian economy is growing rapidly and Indian business schools are climbing rankings worldwide.  And now international universities and business schools are rushing to set up campuses in India.  The Indian higher education market is evolving rapidly.

Around 20 international campuses have already been established or are in the pipeline, with many from both the UK and Australia, but who will study at these campuses?  Will they attract domestic students?  Or perhaps international students looking to study at a leading international institution but at a lower price point than on the home campuses of these institutions?  Will employers recruit the graduates?  And what impact will these institutions have on the wider Indian higher education marketplace?

All of these questions are addressed in the second International India report from CarringtonCrisp.  Surveying 707 prospective undergraduates, 737 prospective postgraduates, 405 parents of prospective students and 284 employers from across India, the new report finds significant interest in the new international campuses, but concerns about employment post-graduation.

More than half the parents surveyed would consider the new international campuses for their children, while 32% of prospective undergraduates and 41% of prospective postgraduates are open to study on these campuses.  Value for money is a key driver of the interest in these campuses, but it's also anticipated that the study experience will provide a platform for getting an international job.

Many remain interested in studying overseas with Europe now the top destination ahead of the USA, and Germany more popular than the UK in Europe.
