I think we don’t have ample opportunities in India because students are so competitive, be it at college or otherwise. The only connection to people and cultures abroad is via the ever-so-popular social networks like Facebook, Twitter and so on. However, there is no take-back value from platforms like these. The USP of AISEC, a global student driven organisation that focuses on the empowerment of youth to develop leadership traits, is that it offers students a glabal platform to learn about their industry first-hand, along with international standards of work ethics and experiences. For students who have chosen to work abroad via organisations like AISEC, the experiences they gain are diverse. They get a chance to learn so much on a practical level.
I feel the global connectivity of abroad is very necessary, and by taking advantage of the various internships at AISEC, they are sure to gain irreplaceable experience in different parts of the world. Using such student orgranisations as platforms, greater understanding between cultures can be developed.
If you look at India, we are very limited; we don’t go out too much, and we are very bound by tradition and family values. Thus, travelling and working abroad would help students understand different cultures.
Youth are the future. If a country itself is not united, then globalisation, which is also the future of the world, cannot really happen. Besides, India is predicted to be on the forefront in many areas the next 10 to 15 years. It is thus very important for us to develop a global mindset.
AISEC offers students an amazing opportunity to meet different people abroad, to learn about their ways of life and to take back a wholesome experience. The students’ maturity and understanding levels definitely increase through a wide spectrum of experiences.
The Indian job market is opening up, with greta employment opportunities in different fields. AISEC provides students with a fantastic platform in this area too, offering an easier way to secure a lucrative job, be it in India or abroad.
