FINDINGS

The primary reason for a large number of students

seeking professional education abroad is lack of

capacity in Indian Institution.

FDI in higher education will solve the problem of

enrollment rate as we are in a situation of less supply

high demand.

India may move towards practical study based learning

rather than routine learning.

SUGGESTIONS

Should monitor the quality of the

programs.

Revenue generated by foreign institutions

should be invested in primary education so

that the base will also get stronger.

Alternate education must be promoted.

CONCLUSION

Therefore we conclude that, provision of adequate

infrastructure with more effective registration and

certification systems, which will-

prevent unapproved institutions from partnering,

protect and inform consumers,

enable good quality foreign institutions to enter the

Indian market.
