Indian Education

The top ranked Indian educational institutions are pushing the envelope on many fronts, and innovating many educational practices. The business departments at IIMs, IITs, and other leading institutions are excellent. In fact the business department at IIT-M does a superb job in training engineer-managers. The admissions process is quite rigorous as well. Opening the education sector to foreign competition will put pressure on second and third tier institutions, but it will also enable the leading Indian schools to get recognized as part of the global leaders.
