Philip, who is the president of XIME gave us a lecture about the educational system in India. He informed us that an MBA is a universal degree, but it is called a Post Graduate Degree in Management in India. The most fascinating things he told us were as follows: India, the USA, and China work intimately with each other (especially economically and managerial-wise), and they will be the top three entrepreneurs by the year 2035. Currently, India has approximately 25,951 colleges and 518 universities (in 1947 they had 574 colleges and 28 universities), but by the year 2035 they expect to have over 15000 combined colleges and universities. In 2011, India had 1.4 million students enrolled in these educational systems, 6.55 million of which were women. Engineering and management are the top two degrees earned. The government has currently set up an affirmative action program for those belonging to the lowest socioeconomic statuses, reserving 22.5% of government jobs and spots in colleges and universities. Last but not least, India has more graduates in mathematics and science than the rest of the world, making its growth rate skyrocket and making their citizens very competitive in the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 1, 2011.
