 NEW DELHI: Ukraine is the latest among several countries that are queuing up with offers for Indian students who aspire to study abroad.
The eastern European country has recently set up an office in New Delhi to support Indian students in taking admission in its various universities and educational institutions.
The ministry of education and science in Ukraine has appointed Proactive Group, a member of International Chamber of Commerce and partner of 30 leading Ukrainian universities, as its official partner in India to facilitate easy movement of students to that country.
"Over the years, Ukraine, owing to its world-class education system, infrastructure and universities has emerged as one amidst top 10 countries that attract maximum number of international students. Supported by the Ukrainian government, we guarantee transparent process of enrolling into the university and a clear fee policy," Yuri Gorokhovskyi, CEO, Proactive Group said.
About 3,000 Indian students are studying in Ukraine. As of now, Indian students opting for education programmes in Ukraine were assisted by independent agents who offered only limited service.
"Being an official partner of State Center of International Education in Ukraine, we focus on India and Ukraine only. Besides, we also work closely with major Ukrainian and international businesses to help our students in getting employment in Ukraine and other European countries," he said.
According to him, the number of international students in Ukraine, especially those going from India is poised to increase rapidly because the cost of studying in Ukraine is much cheaper than in Western Europe, USA, Australia and for some courses even cheaper than in India.
Ukraine is a part of the Bologna process (European Higher Education Area) which stands for uniform academic degree standards and quality assurance standards with 46 participating countries.
According to a research conducted by Industry body ASSOCHAM, over $13 billion is spent every year by about 450,000 Indian students enrolled in higher education abroad as they are not accommodated by domestic institutions.
