India Employability Survey Report 2014

Indian students have been going abroad for higher education in large numbers. In 2011, close to 230,000 Indian students chose to study abroad. While the US and UK continues to be popular destinations for outbound Indian students, countries such as Australia are also drawing Indian students in larger numbers.

The British Council, India sought to assess the employability of Indian students who graduate from foreign universities including those from the UK. The objective was to understand employer attitudes towards foreign-university graduates and how they compared with graduates from Indian universities. For this purpose, it commissioned IMA India to study the ‘market’ for foreign-university graduates in India.

The results contained in this report summarise trends at the macro level. They also report differences across the sample set-sector-wise, ownership-wise and size-wise.

The results of this survey were launched at British Council in Delhi on 24 March 2014.
