India expanding and targeting international students

Joining the shared space of higher education internationalization, India has begun to chart a course of hosting increasing numbers of international students. Coined as the "Study in India" initiative, India hopes to attract students for both short-term as well as complete degree programs. Some of the countries being targeted include Nepal, Vietnam, Kazakhstan, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Thailand, Malaysia, Egypt, Kuwait, Iran, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Rwanda. U.S. students are part of the mix but more likely only as short-term study abroad visitors. The goal is to host as many as 200,000 students by 2023.
