What is the enrollment of
Indian students by level of education?
What are the top fields of
study for Indian Students?
These are some of the
frequently asked questions about data and statistics related to the size
and scale of Indian higher education system. Given below is the
latest information available from University Grants Commission of
India.
With 700 universities and more than 35,000 affiliated colleges enrolling more than 20 million students, Indian higher education is a large and complex system. The structure of degree-granting institutions is cumbersome primarily due to "affiliation" and funding sources. More than 85% of students are enrolled in bachelor's degree programs with majority enrolling in three-year B.A., B.Com. Or B.Sc. Degrees. One-sixth of all Indian students are enrolled in Engineering/Technology degrees.
