Indian students opting for Australia as immigration policies tighten in U.S., U.K.: Experts
Restrictive policies of countries like the United States and the United Kingdom concerning international students and post-study work might push more Indian students towards Australia, experts said. Notably, India ranks second in international student enrolments to Australian universities between 2003 and 2024, according to data from the Australian government's Education Department. With a record 139,038 students, India made up 16% of the total number of foreign student enrolments in Australian universities in 2024, second only to China. 'Australia has remained a key destination for aspiring Indian students for the last many years. Currently, over 1,30,000 Indian students are enrolled in Australian universities, marking a steady year-on-year increase for the last five years. I see that in an upwards trajectory,' Vik Singh, Commissioner of Education at the Australian Trade and Investment Commission (Austrade), told The Hindu. Mr. Singh highlighted that factors like restrictive policies in other countries, coupled with high global rankings of Australian universities, safety of students, and a liberal post-study work system have also made Australia a more appealing choice to Indian students than other destinations. 'Indians, in particular, can leverage a more generous post-study work system in Australia than most other international students. Courtesy of the Australia-India Economic Cooperation and Trade Agreement, Indian students can stay for a maximum of four years after completing their degree to work in Australia. So, academic excellence, liberal post-study work options, and a warm and welcoming environment put together can explain the increasing number of Indian students opting to go to Australia,' Mr. Singh said. The Austrade Commissioner also underlined that Australia is one of the first countries to have branch campuses in India. 'We have two universities, the University of Wollongong and Deakin University, operating with branch campuses in India. We have more branch campuses coming up in Mumbai and Delhi. These would greatly benefit students who wish to leverage a degree from Australia without leaving the country,' Mr. Singh said. He added that there are about 430-odd partnerships between Australian and Indian institutions, offering students the opportunity to get a degree from a quality Indian institution as well as a quality Australian institution. According to data from the Australian government, the number of Indian students enrolling to Australian universities peaked in 2024, following a steady increase from 2015. These observations assume importance in light of the United States' recent decision to halt student visa appointments and check social media accounts of applicants for 'anti-American' sentiments. The Donald Trump government has also cracked down on existing student visa-holders and slashed funding for universities, leading to uncertainty among Indian students aspiring to pursue an education in the United States. On the other hand, Britain's Labour government, in a white paper released on May 12 this year, said that it will strengthen the requirements for sponsoring institutions to recruit international students, to prevent misuse of student visas. The policy paper, titled 'Restoring control over the immigration system', also said that the U.K. government will 'reduce the ability for Graduates to remain in the U.K. after their studies to a period of 18 months after their graduation'. Earlier, international students could stay in the United Kingdom for two years (or three years for PhD students) after graduation to work or look for jobs. In June, the Australian government organised the 'Festival of Australia' in Kolkata, Coimbatore, Dhaka, and Colombo, to connect aspirants to representatives from Australian universities.

'You may be far, but hearts of 140cr Indians beat with you, it's start of new era': PM Modi to Shukla on ISS
NEW DELHI: 'Earth looks borderless and gives feeling of oneness, and Bharat looks big from space,' Indian astronaut Shubhanshu Shukla told PM Narendra Modi on Saturday during his first interaction with the PM through a video link from the International Space Station while 'orbiting Earth at an altitude of 400 km". Cheering the astronaut, Modi told him that 'you may be far from us but the hearts of 140 crore Indians beat with you'. 'The first thing I saw was Earth — it looks perfectly unified. No borders are visible. India looks so large from here, far more prominent than on a map. From up here, there are no countries, no divisions — just one home. That is our ethos: unity in diversity. Just a while ago, when I saw from the window of ISS, I could see Hawaii,' Group Captain Shukla told the PM while informing him, 'I have hoisted the tricolour on ISS. India has reached ISS. ' Modi said Shukla's name carries the word 'shubh' (meaning auspicious) and that his journey marked the auspicious 'beginning of a new era'. The Indian astronaut told the PM that his space sojourn was 'not my journey alone but also our country's'. 'We trained for a year and I learnt about different after coming here, everything even small things are different because there is no gravity in by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Livguard Lithium-X: The Future of Power Backup Livguard Shop Now Undo here is a big challenge...I can even sleep on the roof. It takes some time to get used to this environment,' Shukla told the PM, while adding, 'Right now, we are travelling at a speed of 28,000 kmph and I am talking to you with my legs tied. ' 'This speed reflects how fast our nation is progressing and now, we must go even beyond this,' he said. The astronaut said the space station orbits Earth 16 times a day and that he is privileged to witness 16 sunrises and 16 sunsets every day. While referring the astronaut as 'Shux', PM gave him 'homework', telling him to learn as much as possible because the lessons learnt from this Axiom-4 mission 'will have to be extensively used in the Gaganyaan mission , our own Bharatiya Antariksh Station and also for landing an Indian on the Moon.' Shukla told Modi that he is 'absorbing experiences at ISS like a sponge'. When the PM asked about Indian delicacies he carried to space and whether he shared them with his space mates, Shukla said he is carrying 'gajar ka halwa, moong dal halwa, and aamras into orbit'. 'I wanted my fellow crew members from other countries to taste India's heritage. We all sat together and enjoyed it. They loved it,' Shukla said. Shukla shared his reflections from space — on science, struggle, and the boundless dreams of a rising nation. The call was more than ceremonial. It was a glimpse into how India's spacefaring ambitions have matured. Modi described Shukla's journey not as a solitary voyage but as India's own orbit of progress. 'When I was a child, I never imagined I could become an astronaut. But today, modern India enables the realisation of such dreams,' Shukla said. When asked by Modi about microgravity tests he will carry out on ISS, especially from the medicine and agriculture sectors, Shukla said, he 'will do seven experiments'. 'Today, I am going to do a test on stem cells. I am doing a test on supplements to see if such supplements can help prevent muscle loss. This will help people in old age who are losing muscle due to ageing,' he said. Another test explores the cultivation of nutrient-rich microalgae, which could boost food security back home. 'The advantage of space,' he said, 'is that processes happen quickly. That accelerates research and inspires children back home to say, 'I can go there too'.' PM Modi asked what message he would send to India's youth. Shukla responded with clarity and conviction: 'Never stop trying. Whether today or tomorrow, success will come if you don't give up. This is just the first chapter of India's space story. We'll build our own space station. We'll land Indian astronauts on the Moon. And, I'm documenting everything—every lesson I learn will help others fly sooner.' His final words struck a chord destined to echo across classrooms, command centres and quiet corners of the country: 'The sky is never the limit—not for me, not for you, and not for India.' 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai' chant filled up the space station as the PM raised the slogan towards the end of the 18-minute conversation, which was reciprocated by Shukla.
