FIRMS Situation
● The various university and colleges say that there has been a lack of components talent
pool for the past 5 years.

Secondary information: The Great Indian Brain Drain by Pragya Saini : Over the years,
millions of young talented Indians from various disciplines have left our soil in search of
better opportunities. For a long time, the idea of people moving to a different country was
seen as a badge of honour, a feather in the cap as it were. The most singularly pursued dream.
And this was primarily because India was unable to offer those prospects to its citizens. It’s
not that we’re adequately able to, right now as well. So is India’s brain drain problem getting
worse?

Overseas university education has been a favourite among Indian students for a very long
time. As of 2018, nearly 7,53,000 Indian students were studying abroad. Several news reports
suggest that more than half of the first rankers in Class 10 and Class 12 examinations during
1996-2015 had migrated and were studying or employed overseas, mostly in the US. The
toppers are just the tip of an iceberg of student migration. There’s this growing sense of
dissatisfaction generally, among the students that the current Indian education system is inept
at preparing them for the challenges of the increasingly globalised world. The lack of
innovative courses is drawing a lot of young students to leave Indian shores for better
education overseas.

SYMPTOMS
● In 2021 approximately 72000 Indians migrated to country’s like USA, UK, Canada,
Germany and the like for higher education.
● Lack of skilled professionals in India , graduating every years

Today, India is just a decade away from changing its status into a developed and superpower
nation, but unfortunately, history is repeating itself. This time, millennials are leaving the
country not for the dearth of jobs on their domestic shores, but in search of a better standard
of living and quality of life, higher salaries, access to advanced technology and more stable
political conditions across international borders—to Canada, Australia, European countries
and more. This rising exodus of Indian professionals is definitely benefitting the host
countries but it is becoming a growing cause for concern for the economic health of India.
Less than half of the Indian graduates are employable, reveals the eighth edition of the India
Skills Report (ISR) released today. In 2021, as many as 45.9 per cent of graduates are
employable, a decline from 46.21 per cent in 2020 and 47.38 per cent in 2019, reveals the
report. MCA graduates are the least in terms of employability as only 22.42 per cent of them
are employable followed by polytechnic at 25.02 per cent.
In contrast to the common belief, it is the B.Tech graduates who are most employable with
46.82 per cent followed closely by MBAs at 46.59 per cent, states the report.

Secondary information : According to an article published by Divya Jain on November,2018:
Higher education is one of the major reasons for permanent immigration. Considering the
recent scenario of sky-rocketing cut-offs for admissions reaching close to 100% in top Indian
universities, many students end up compromising on their dream of occupying a seat in any
of the prestigious Indian universities. This urges them to explore the scope of higher
education abroad and secure a place in good universities as they have an advantage over
students from other countries in terms of skills and knowledge. Considering the global
exposure and access to high-quality life and facilities, not only do the students become
reluctant to return home, even the country’s skilled workforce decides to step out to match
pace with their peers who are doing well abroad.
At present, a lot of educational institutions in the country are giving importance to textbook
education and theoretical learning which fails to equip students with skills that will make
them job-ready. This ends up creating a wide gap between industry requirements and
academic knowledge. As per the latest India Skill Report, only 47% of students coming out
of educational institutions in India are employable.  This clearly points to the need for
broadened access to both formal, basic and higher education systems, as well as investing
more on reskilling and upskilling of the students and the present workforce so that they skip
the idea of stepping out of the country.
RESEARCH OBJECTIVES AND DECISION

● To list actions that can be taken by the Indians governments and the
university to retain the talent pool in the home country.
● To know the reason of students migration to host countries in quest of higher
education?

RESEARCH QUESTION

● What are the factors that lead to brain drain i

Secondary information: Migration of Students from India: An Overview

By Dr. Amba Pande

India is the world’s second largest student sending country after China with the number of
Indian students abroad having increased four times in the last 14 years. Students’ migration
of such magnitude has become a major source of capital and brain drain for India while
hugely benefitting the economies of the advanced countries. Ninety percent of student
movement from India is concentrated in five countries of which the United States is by far the
largest recipient, receiving more than half of the expatriate Indian students, followed by
Australia and the United Kingdom.
Several factors appear to be at work propelling the massive flow of students beyond the
Indian borders.

RESEARCH HYPOTHESIS

Brain drain problem in India is positively related to better lifestyle and better higher
education facilities in host countries.

Secondary information: Overseas university education has been a favourite among Indian
students for a very long time. As of 2018, nearly 7,53,000 Indian students were studying
abroad. Several news reports suggest that more than half of the first rankers in Class 10 and
Class 12 examinations during 1996-2015 had migrated and were studying or employed
overseas, mostly in the US. The toppers are just the tip of an iceberg of student migration.
There’s this growing sense of dissatisfaction generally, among the students that the current
Indian education system is inept at preparing them for the challenges of the increasingly
globalised world. The lack of innovative courses is drawing a lot of young students to leave
Indian shores for better education overseas.
A major reason why India’s young, skilled labour force leaves is in search of better rewards
for their effort and talent. And, better salaries are not the only motive for the out-of-India
migration of skilled professionals, it’s the overall social safety net that is one of the main
reasons for families to relocate out of India. While the U.S. continues to be the favourite
destination, Canada is quickly catching up. The idea of a welfare state where a family’s basic
needs of education and health are taken care of or are available at quite an affordable price, is
too good an offer for someone to refuse.
