Reasons to study in USA

Here I'll try to show you why to choose USA for your higher studies at any level.


1. Flexibility of courses: To me this is a great thing. You can bend your course to combine German with Electrical Engineering, or High Energy Physics with History! This can be a great boon while trying to get employment. Further at the Undergraduate level, if you are majoring in Electrical Engineering but a after a semester you find that EE is not your thing..you are always welcomed to change your major to one that suits you the best. May be Aerospace
Engineering, Physics or even Economics!

2. Excellent Research and Employment opportunities: This applies only if you are employable enough. You need to be very good at English and at least another foreign language!

3. Best Universities: The majority of colleges and universities featured in world rankings are in the United States. Universities like Harvard, Yale, MIT, CalTech, Stanford at the top of the list with their research facilities and employment opportunities.

4. Approach to Learning: Unlike in India, the approach to learning is not dictated by the kind of questions that will be asked in the exams. Instead, you absorb and perform at a steady pace and there is no pressure of your whole life being determined by one exam.

5. Various Extra-Curricular development: Universities in US offer a broad spectrum of Extra-Curricular Activities which not only helps your overall growth but also makes you attractive to prospective employers.

6. Value of Degree Earned: A degree earned from the USA is respected everywhere in the world. So you can work almost any place in the world.

7. Tie-Ups: Most universities have research tie ups with the best institutions in the world like Oxford, Cambridge, Max Plank Institutes, University of Bremen. Imagine spending an year abroad doing research in Germany, France or England!

8. Internships: USA has the most number of acclaimed companies in the world. Starting from Microsoft, Apple, HP, IBM to Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon. Even major companies have their companies set up in USA like Siemens,SONY, PWC and what not. Thus you can do internships at many of these companies to gain skills in your field of study be it engineering or Administration.
