Abstract
In addition to the rapid growth of globalization and technological innovations, the process of internationalization of higher education has also emerged as a new and major factor determining the educational, economic, and socio-political status of India in the world. With its associated problems and issues, the internationalization of higher education offers a revolutionary potential for our nation, which has a large young population, and age old rich heritage of learning, and rising ambitions for globalization. This paper aims at examining the potential and the possible issues in the way of making India an international education hub. It also highlights on the efforts towards setting the higher educational standards to meet the global needs.
Internationalization is the process of incorporating global, multicultural aspects into the goals, operations, and provision of higher education. It means establishing objectives at the local level rather than the higher one. It also includes cross-border educational initiatives, international research collaborations, partnerships with foreign universities, global curriculum, and teacher and student mobility. India must drastically alter its current educational system in terms of infrastructure development, pertaining to academicians and stakeholders in generally, in order to realize this ideal future, the imagined conceptual perfection. This dream, certainly is not without the problems and obstacles preventing higher education, or education in general, from becoming more globally integrated.
