Summary of the podcast 

Generally, these topics aren’t much available in the mainstream media, because they are believed hard to crack and don't address the basics. But, through our podcast, we disprove this misconception that these cannot be understood by common people. We explain in simple terms various subtopics under this vast topic in the form of conversational and discussion styles. Everything in the episode is easy to follow and understand. 

The podcast started by talking about Guest's personal experiences in the UK for his Masters degree. He elaborately talked about his experiences- subjects, teachers, assignments, evaluations and much more with the help of examples. This was followed by an elaborate Q&A that looked into the comparison of the education systems in both India and the UK. The Host and the Guests discussed with each other the various ways in which India's Higher education system can learn from other countries notably the UK. 

Before ending the episode, the conversation dived into how a person can plan a career abroad and how they can use various facilities and scholarships to enhance their opportunities for a stable and successful career abroad. 

We cover in detail the following topics-

  1. Introduction to the topic and panellist 
  2. Panellist's experiences abroad 
  3. Compare education in India and abroad- UK
  4. Explain the differences in Teaching, Exams, Research, Placement etc. 
  5. Scholarships and other help available 
  6. How can Indian Higher Education learn and adapt the changes?
