Studying abroad can be exciting and challenging for an Indian student. It can be particularly so when the destination is a country like the UK, which has a tradition of higher education and legacies like Oxford and Cambridge.
As far as Indian students are concerned, if one is in his or her final year of graduation or has already graduated, then a postgraduate course can be ideal. Courses at the Master's level give you the opportunity to specialise in your subject and boost your career prospects. Similarly, if you are taking your class XII exams this year, then you are eligible to apply for the Bachelor's programme in September 2012.
The country includes universities like Southampton, Sheffield, Leicester, Sussex, Glasgow, Strathclyde and Kingston. Compared to other countries, the duration of a Master's degree programme in the UK is one year, which works as an added advantage for students, saving both time and money.
Scholarships ranging between £2000 and £6500 are available in the areas of international business, marketing, finance, MBA, mechanical , electronics, automotive, computer sciences & IT, software engineering, architecture, biotechnology, genetics, neuroscience, economics , development studies, international relations , psychology, law and English literature.
A seminar is being organised by Education Pathways India to help students who aspire to explore UK as their future academic destination. Sessions will take place on February 14, 15, 16 & 17 (Tue to Fri), 2012.
