Dreaming
to study Abroad..
|
Why
should a young student leave all the comforts and
luxuries of life and head out for a challenging life
and that too abroad? Alien country ,unknown people,
diverse culture and lifestyle ,different food , investing
large amount of money all seems to threatening .How
can one adjust there and then one is expected to
study, score well and make a career ?sounds impossible!
If you feel this is impossible, then you need to check
with lakhs of students that went abroad last year to pursue
their studies .Yes, Lakhs of them for a Bachelors and Masters
degree in various field from all over India .The only focus
that they had on their mind was their future. Let us see
a few reasons as to why they would have left all the comforts
and took a calculated decision to study abroad.
Some of the top reasons are.
- An
international, cross- cultural experience.
- Better
Pay Scales.
- Capacity
for growth
- Independence.
- Option
to study at the world's finest universities.
- Opportunity
to interact with
the best of people from all over the
world, in terms of faculty
and students.
- Outstanding
programs offering a variety of vocations to choose
from.
- Well
prepared to increasingly
international job market.
- Self reliance
- An overall developed personality.
Studying
abroad is a wonderful way of enriching and diversifying
your education. You will learn a tremendous amount
simply from living and learning in a new social
and cultural environment, from the people you meet, and from life as it vicariously
unfolds. Additionally, for many students the study abroad experience stimulates
not just a new way of looking at themselves and the world, but new ideas
about what comes after they graduate, which is to
say: jobs and a career. Employers
generally look favorably at applicants who, in addition to having a strong
academic record, also have some hands-on work experience.
In the increasingly globalized
economy and job-market, and international work experience may be seen as
especially valuable. Many study abroad programs have
internship components; some are even
centered around internships. It is also sometimes possible to set up some
sort of work project, volunteer service, etc. in
the community surrounding your
program, as long as you can do with without conflict
with your studies. In any of these
instances, your home institution may or may not grant credit for these events
but it will go along way in fostering new beginnings.
Finally, the long-term impact of study abroad on a student's personal, professional,
and academic life shows that study abroad positively and unequivocally influences
the career path, world-view, and self-confidence of students. You will learn
a tremendous amount simply from living and learning in a new social and cultural
environment, from the people you meet, and from life as it vicariously unfolds.
So even now if you are thinking of not going abroad…then think about the
above points and make a sound decision. -
