India-UAE Education Conclave: University Connect

Expanding Horizon of Transnational Higher Education

With a 68% jump in Indian students opting for higher education abroad in 2022 there is a big space for Indian campuses to build a base abroad. Transnational Education (TNE) has emerged as a powerful force, not just a trend; it’s a transformation, and India is fast becoming a global hub for TNE collaborations. The number of Indian students enrolled in international universities reached a staggering 1.2 million, highlighting the immense potential of TNE to cater to this demand.
