This paper aims to review the higher education system in India and to examine the challenges and opportunities for cross border higher education.
The paper uses a review of published statistics and extant literature on Indian higher education provision, regulatory mechanisms and cross border higher education.
The higher education system in India is long established, has many strengths and has significant potential for growth. Whilst the regulatory system is largely onerous and could be simplified, there is significant scope for growth of cross border higher education.
Within the context of the current developments taking place in the higher education sector in India, this paper addresses issues related to growth and the challenges and opportunities for cross border higher education.
