Foreign Campuses in India Could Educate Over 5.6 Lakh Students by 2040: Report
Foreign universities operating campuses in India could collectively cater to more than 5.6 lakh students by 2040, according to a new report that highlights the growing role of global institutions in the country’s higher education sector.
The report suggests that the expansion of foreign campuses in India may significantly reduce the number of students going abroad for higher education, leading to substantial savings in foreign exchange, potentially amounting to billions of dollars over the coming years.
It notes that policy reforms allowing foreign universities to establish campuses, along with rising demand for globally recognised degrees, are key factors driving this trend. The presence of international institutions is also expected to strengthen academic standards, promote research collaboration, and enhance India’s global standing as an education destination.
Experts cited in the report believe that the successful integration of foreign campuses could help India retain talent while expanding access to international-quality education within the country.
